Trike air shocks
Purchased an ‘06 FLH this spring from an individual. Bike was converted to a trike in 2012 by the then owner. The kit was purchased from American Trike and seems to be functional for the most part. The rear suspension has been the weakest link that I have found. Showa air shocks are on the trike now, but always bottoming out ! My question is, any recommendations on an alternative shock for the rear of this trike? Thanks Mike

They make a GREAT product which I am extremely pleased with. While we were there two trikes showed up for upgrades. It's worth a call to discuss your setup with them.
Good luck

George pretty much refers all Trike rear shock inquiries to DK Custom. We work closely with PA and have co-developed the Trike Series Shocks™
You can read more about them at this Rear Suspension Report LINK.
