Default Nameless Shocks Question

Found these on Egay I mean Ebay. Just curious if anyone has tried them. Not bad for a price... just wonder if there worth a squat. Id like to bring my bob down in the rear so It doesn't look like a Motocross bike. Ive researched all the 412's 430's and 444's. I like the hand adjust ability of the 430s but not the biggest fan of the look of the top of them. The contrast cut is not really my taste.

Also wondering if the OEM Harley shocks are adjustable. Looks like the have the holes for the special wrench?

Thanks

I wouldn't lower the bike unless you can live with a worse ride then you have now.
Your stock shocks are adjustable with a spanner wrench you can buy at the dealer or if you want PM me and I'll send you one for 15 bucks delevered. You may find a better deal if you don't have freight involved.

Yea i could sacrifice a little ride quality for the looks. I could damn near fit a football between the tire and fender haha Plus the factory chrome shocks look "cheap" to me. I dont commute on mine everyday so I think a little rougher ride is fine. Ill let you know of that wrench

my bike is lowered and i think it rides great! i can put on 8 - 10 hours saddle time no problem. plus we are talking shitty chicago roads. dont spend $200 on some no name shocks, for that price you can get a set of progressives. i run the 412's

I have the Burly's 10.5's. Ride on the softest setting. They are fine as well.

Thanks for the tips guys. Yea 412s are not much more at all. Them or the 444s are my first choice but Ill probly give the 412s a shot first since there half the price. Ill check out the Burleys too
