I had a Burley 1" lowering kit on the rear of my 07 FXD and removed it due to saddle bags that my girl bought me. I want to re-lower the bike using shocks, but I am confused as to what length to get. The book says I have 12" shocks on my bike. I measured them eye to eye and they are 12.75". What length new shocks should I get to get the same stance I had with the lowering blocks?
Any help will be appreciated!!!

 

i would not go any shorter than 11, otherwise ride would be impacted

 

Ditto on the 11". The stock ones were 12"

 

Save some money......get the Bikers Choice 11 inch shocks $160....they are Progressive 412s without the bottom cup....they look like the Burly shocks that Progressive makes too.

2007 FXD Superglide had 12.75" shocks. The Low Rider and Street Bob had the 12". Like the others said, I wouldn't go lower than 11".
