Progressive Suspension 465-5043B 465 Series Rear Shock 13.5 Inch with Remote Adjustable Preload Black

The Progressive Suspension 465 Series is a state-of-the-art high-pressure gas monotube shock design engineered to deliver premium performance and adjustability for Harley-Davidson M8 Softail motorcycles. This 13.5-inch shock features Remote Adjustable Preload (RAP) with a remote hydraulic adjuster to make it even easier to fine-tune your suspension for different loads, such as passengers or luggage.

Key Features:

• 46mm bore with deflective disc damping and threaded body for precise suspension control
• Five-position rebound adjustment to tailor the suspension for changing conditions and riding styles
• 16mm hard chrome shaft rides on custom viton seals for low friction and leak-free life
• Hard-anodized aluminum body and components for excellent durability and corrosion resistance
• Includes R.A.P. mounting bracket for easy installation of remote preload adjuster
• Hand-built, tuned and dyno'd with Lifetime Warranty
• Custom tuned damping and spring rate for each fitment

The monotube design with high-pressure nitrogen provides ultimate performance and fade-free damping consistency. The standard spring rate is ideal for typical riding applications, while the RAP system allows quick adjustment with a simple turn of the machined aluminum knob to accommodate changing loads, rider weight, and terrain conditions.

Note: Before purchasing or attempting to install shocks that are different than the OEM length, confirm that your wheel travel can be altered without causing clearance issues such as swingarm/axle to exhaust contact, as well as chain/belt guard or tire contact.
