new CVO shocks
the 2010 FLHXSE CVO did away with the standard air shocks and went with a coil over shock that had the left shock adjustable for preload.
I also noticed these are in the current parts catalog.
Anyone try these on their bike? Just curioius on the ride and improvement over the air shock.

For what your going to pay for those HD shocks move up to Ohlins or such. Should not be much difference in price but a big difference in ride. Just my opinion but I'm sure others will chime in with the same advice.

I put them on my 09 Street Glide, they are a major improvment....................and they don't leak air like my stock shocls did every week.
Now compared to an Ultra shock, they are not quite as smooth.

call Howard off hours & week-ends (he prefers) for a free consultation about shocks in general - he loves to share his knowledge about suspension - no hard sell - mention the forum
Buy Ohlin's once in your life (great guarantee & totally rebuildable) - have one of the best rides out there ! for the $ your bike cost - the ride should be one of the top priorities ... whats a few hundred more over the lifetime of the bike - then move them to your future touring ride ... or sell the stock shocks if your short on cash to fund the new Ohlin's - but keeping the stock shocks allow to you to keep the Ohlin's when switching bikes ...
Mine are totally a joy to ride - #3-3, I hated the stock 09 RGSE air shocks, which made the bike NOT what it should have been from day one (MoCo Cheapo)
Worked for me
