Being used to my Road Kings suspension and tires I have not been happy with the setup on my new RG at all. I got with Howard and he set up His 2-2B for me. I set the sag and got out on the road today.

After awhile, I realized I was not paying attention to the shocks and how the new shocks felt. Seems I didn't feel the shocks at all, Lol. Great handling and nice riding. Thanks Howard!

 

My experience as well! My Ohlins from Howard totally changed my bike. Only way to describe it is WOW!

 

mind telling us what they cost? thanks

 

I've got a set of Ohlins Howard built for me sitting in my garage. I've gotta get some time to call Howard and get them installed.

 

I've spoken to Howard on the phone, and if I were to spend the coin, he would be my go to guy. What length did you get for the shocks?

 

The 2-2B shocks are 12 7/8" overall with a 3 5/16" stroke. With Howards forum discount, These cost me $523.75 to my door.

 

no complaints with my OEM shocks on the King but for Ohlins that's a complete no brainer

 

Agreed, With a 16" rear and 17" front that serves up lots of sidewall on the tires, and top it off with a 13" shock the King offers a nice ride.

The Road Glide I have is fitted with a 18" rear and 19" front (rubber bands)and 12" shocks. that equates to a harsher ride big time. The Howards put me back on par my Road Kings ride with out a sacrifice in handling that those low profile tires provide.

 

330mm is the length of the shock, not the stroke.

 

MY BAD, the stroke is 3 5/16"
