Default 14 Inch Shocks

Hello, I was looking at the RWD rear shocks. Anyone here know if 14 inch shocks will fit the touring bikes? Specifically a 2020 Road King Special... Thanks in advance.

I have a 2016 Road Glide Ultra with a shorty exhaust and 14" RWD. No issues with mine either. Just buy them already. You won't regret it.

Iv'e got RWD RS-1 slip on's on my Ultra Limited. Great shocks. I had them installed at Russ's shop about a year ago. I inquired about the 14" version but was told they would probably interfere with my slip on's. They also told me the travel is 4" on both the 13" and 14" shocks. I saw no reason to go with the 14's.

I run them on my 2018 - depending on your exhaust you might have clearance issues at the axle but other than that I haven't had any issues.
