How can you tell what type of progressive shocks are on a bike? My uncle passed away a couple years back and I inherited his bike. I know it has progressive shocks but I don't know what kind.

Any help? Thanks in advance.

 

Some pics would help! If not, can you describe general appearance/length/approximate age? Which model bike is it?

 

I can get a picture. The bike is an '04 883XL.

 

Can you see the adjustments on the bottom of the shocks or does it adjust from the top?

 

Here is a picture, where do you take the length measurements from?

 

I'm new to Harleys, so I am not sure. I'll have to go take a look since I was not even aware I could adjust them.

By the way, I know how to turn a wrench, I have a Camaro that I work on frequently. But this is my first bike.

 

Looks like 412 to me

 

Looks like 412s. Just under the edge of the lower chrome cover around the back there will be a label with the model#.

 

Sweet, thanks for the help.
