Default Rough Ride Glide
If the road king and street glide are the same why does the RK ride so much better??? I rode one the other day and was shocked how much smoother it rode. My glide will break your back on a bump even playing with the air in the shocks.

Your in the parts for sale section. But to answer your question the Street Glide has 12" shocks on it and the Road King has 13" shocks.
