Handling issue Ultra
Hi Guys, try to ma its short.
I have a 2012 Ultra with air shocks and it handles beautifully on both left and right bends as it should.
Now to my issue:
I have a 2018 Ultra 117 Anniversary model a fantastic bike
It handles well in left hand bends and I am constantly correcting in right hand bends?????.
Im not riding like an idiot!
Tyre Pressures are 35 Front, 38 Rear and I am 200lbs in weight.
I don't like the fact that you only adjust one shock and yes I have tried every adjustment ion the scale.
I have been told this is a common problem?? and the suggested fix is either Legend Shocks or the latest Screamin Eagle upgrade.
Happy to spend the money if it solves it.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Cheers, Norm.

Both The rear air Shocks were controlled by one Schrader valve, it was at 20psi, I weigh 205 lbs, So I increased the psi to 30.
Had the Triple tree Fall away adjusted. (they were tight)
The ride handles Great now. I hope this will aid your ride. Ride On

I had a 12 ultra and the wife hated the ride. I traded it for a 18 RGU that had Legends on the rear. It tracks great and the wife loves the ride. The big bumps that hurt her back no longer do.
