Harley low shock kit

I'm going to lower the rear on my 06 wide glide. I can get 20% off the Harley low shock kit at my local dealer. Are these skocks any good or should I just go with the Progressives??

Don't know about the dealer kit, but I've never heard any complaints about Progressive. Mine arrived today. Quality parts.

HD low shocks are fine. I am using them.

The Progressives are more than likely, far superior.

Look around and you can find the Progressive 412's 11.5" at far better prices than the HD's. I'm assuming your WG has 12.5" stockers like my 06 FXDL.

RE: Harley low shock kit

I went with the HD lower shocks and I don't have any problem with them. I don't know if they ride any better than Progressive, since I've never ridden them before.
