Question about Touring shocks
Question about Touring shocks
I have an 03 Road King Classic, I just installed hard bags and an ultra king tour pak. I took a ride this weekend two up and it seamed to ride a bit harder even though I had about 25 lbs in the shocks. My question is there any difference between the the RKC shocks and the Ultra shocks? Thanks

RE: Question about Touring shocks
The Road king Classic and the Ultra use the same shocks. You said you have a hard ride, I would think with 25lbs of air it certainly would ride hard. I changed my lowered SG shocks to standard shocks that were taken off a Ultra, I run with 12 lbs, I weigh about 220 and my ride is great.

RE: Question about Touring shocks
i weight 175 and usually run 0-4 psi in shocks when riding alone. When my little 120 lb wife is riding with me, i set the shocks for 10 psi. This has always worked well unless the road is bad, then i have to up the psi.
Check the owners' manual for recommended psi with passenger and loads.
