Should I exchange these?
Yesterday I had the notion to ride out to Eastern Performance in Maryland. They were not letting anyone in their shop or show room. Would answer the phone. I think I made an ill informed decision....
2017 Street Glide. 5’11” and 235 pounds. Passenger 160 pounds. She is on more than 60% of the time. 400 pounds maybe 425 with stuff in bags,
I ordered new Legend Revo A 12” shocks. Heavy duty. Guy on the phone recommended. I thought I could get in there and they would install them. No luck. Will ship to my house instead.
Started researching installation and all I see is 13” shock recommendations for Street Glide. Heavy duty only necessary above 500 pounds. I called Eastern and they will exchange them if I don’t open them.
what would you all do?

13 will give you more travel in the shock. 12 will get u closer to the ground. if u are taller get 13 if u are having trouble reaching ground get 12
