Default Best 13.5” Rear Shocks

I’m looking to upgrade my Works and I’ve been looking at Ohlins, but I’m seeing 12 inchers everywhere. Legend Revo’s at 13.

I’m trying to stay at stock geometry on a 2001 FXDX.

I really like my 13.5” ODC shocks. I have piggybacks, but they also make them without.

I was checking out ODC, but the website doesn’t work. Seems like you can only buy from a reseller, which is fine I suppose.

‘Yeah, they are still working on the site. They go with stateside distributors because it is easier for them to ship a couple large shipments as opposed to sending out individual orders. Also ends up less expensive for the end user because of the duty and fees being paid on one large shipment as opposed to a bunch of smaller ones.

Ohlins, Legends, Racetech all make good stuff also.

My brother is an ODC distributor in case you decide to go that route, let me know.
