Default JRi Single Adjustable Shocks

Just added a 2015 Street Glide Special to my garage. I would like to drop the bike down just a little for my short legs. I am thinking about the 11" JRi Single Adjustable Shocks. Anyone have them that can give me feedback? I see a lot about the dual adjustable ones, but not about the single adjustable shocks.

Might as well just make a set of 11” solid struts.

I'll second that. They are complete garbage. Same as struts. HD shocks work better.

Legends air ride way better.

You are better off adding lowering blocks to the stock shocks.
Any 11” shock is going to ride like ****.

If you’re set on lowering your bike with the current shocks, consider the good folks at D-K Customs.

They make quality products.
