Yes. Just make darn sure those take offs are really 2017 and not earlier premium shocks. There is a difference and some have been passing them off as 2017 take offs.

Am I to understand that these no longer require air pressure?

That is correct. They are referred to as Emulsion Shocks and are adjustable. I know they will fit on my bike. I'm curious if they work better than my current factory air shocks. It would be tough to get worse.

I am sure they are not as good as some of the higher end shocks but every review I have read says there are an improvement over the air shocks. The easy hand adjustment is what interest me as I change between solo, two up and two up loaded quite a bit.
