I put the 12.5 inch ones on my dyna superglide. Id consider them stock replacements and not really an improvement. They arent really an upgrade unless you go with a better shock that lets you control either the rebound or compression dampening. Honestly i wish i just spent the money on better ones. Kinda a waste in my opinion.

Stock replacement 412’s and stock replacement Progressive front springs improved ride and handling on my Fat Bob. It’s never gonna match my former FXDXT for many reasons

I've got some 412 heavy duty in stock length 12" , black with some rubs from bags. I'm a light guy and don't ride loaded as I thought might when i got them. Replaced with burly brand, regular duty. Will sell for 75.oo plus shipping if interested. About 10k on them. I noticed a good improvement over stock, but also did fork springs. I can email pics if interested.

Agree with this. I put 12.5" 412s on last year, they helped out a little but not much. Currently saving my cash for some Ohlins...
