Default Pro Action Shocks

I bought these looking for a better ride for me and the wife for my 2000 Ultra Classic. Like so many others I had tried different shocks moving from the air shocks to progressives. I had read about these Pro Action Shocks and researched asked a lot of questions from many different people and all who had experienced these shocks said they were the Best!! So I decided to give them a try.
Was one of the Best things I had done for my Bike not only do we have a much smoother ride my Bike now tracks and handles curves like she was on a rail. Completely made my Bike into a whole new updated machine. If you try them you won't regret doing it the Shocks and Set Up are really that Good!! The people at Pro Action know how to make a suspension work for you! Try them you will be amazed!!

Very happy with mine as well! These shocks are great on my '97 Sportster. Much better than the RK air shocks that were on previously.

I have pro actions on all my bikes except the 74 FLH. They are the best rear shocks you can get and I’d pay more than what they cost for them too.

Pretty sure we aren’t talking about SuperBike racing teams here.

Opinions also come into play.

I know. Best to say they are the "best rear shocks one can buy" is an opinion. Not a fact. Penske and Ohlins will both be superior in almost every way. Will an individual "like" them more than Super Shocks, maybe. I suppose just like some people like a Chevy more than a Cadillac.
