new rear shocks

Hey folks, I have a '10 Ultra Limited, wondering if anyone has tried the new "Premium ride Hand-adjustble Low touring shocks" offered in the Harley parts catalog, I am looking for a little lower stance, and a smoother ride for my passenger.

Any imput would be appreciated, even if you have a different brand to suggest

thanks, mscharine

I can only assume that he did not have good luck with the Harley ones...are the Ohlins the way to go?

Lots of us think so! Motorcycle Metal is a HDF sponsor and will custom build them for you and your bike.

My Ohlins just arrived at my house last week. Howard is great (Motorcycle Metal)! Spent time talking about what I was after and applied his vast knowledge to make the right recommendations...then built them to my spec.

I can NOT wait to get 'em on!!

Then we'll see if I can get even $5 for the fancy stock air shocks! <ugh>

A search on the topic and you'll see the HUGE number of thread...it was easy to go with Motorcycle Metal Ohlins!
