Premium Hand adjustable 13" shocks!
I purchased a pair of HD Premium hand adjustable 13" shocks from a forum member. I installed them last night and took a nice long ride today, all I can say is WOW!!!
I have tried PRo-Action, Super Shocks and Revo-A shocks and in my opinion these HD Premium shocks out perform all of them.
I weigh 215Lbs and have the rebound set at zero. I traveled over some very bumpy roads today and the bike just glided over all of them. I didn't get any back jarring pain that I have been getting with previous set-ups.

I've often thought about a cop seat. I just missed one that sold today in the classifieds for $195 complete!

I have always had 13" shocks through all the brands I've tried so I am at the same height I've always been. I did notice that there is not as much sag with the premiums as with other shocks but that would be the same as the 12" u have. I have a LePera seat that drops me about an inch so I'm sitting in the bike. I'm 6' tall so for me 13" shock are a non issue as far as height.

Interesting that people think there is a huge difference in riding comfort between the 12" and 13" adjustable shocks.
The measured difference is only 3/4", which means only 3/8" in stroke going up or down.
Small compression and rebound difference.

Most of the time there is enough travel in my 12" shocks but when there isn't I'd love to have the 30% additional travel offered by the 13" shocks.
