Need help identifying shocks

I just purchased a 2016 Road Glide Special. The shocks have been switched, but I can’t tell what they are. There are no markings on them except TR701D. I searched this number, but came up empty. Any help is appreciated.

I can see a label though the spring near the top rear of the shock - what does that say?

Im not 100% percent sure but kind of look like drag specialties shocks. I have been doing research and seeing if anyone had any feedback. Any way they look similar.

It’s a warning label. No identification numbers or marks. Thanks for the reply.

I think you’re correct. I finally got ahold of the seller and they said the shocks were “Drag”. Ow I need to do research on how to adjust them. The seller was quite a bit smaller than me so I am sure they’re not set for my weight. Good catch and thanks for the reply.
