progressive shocks

[roadkingdresser]

Just picked up a set of progressive shocks 944-4001. On the springs the numbers are B20175  03-1351  130/212. They came off a 2018 ultra. Can anybody give me some knowledge on these shocks and springs. Want to put them on my 2010 Road King. my weight is 190 lb. Thanks.

check the eye to eye length of your present shocks, these progressive may be a bit long

He probably has 13" shocks now, the new Progressives are 12.5".

Progressive 12 1/2" Stock 13" center to center.

Have you installed them and gotten a feel for them yet? Do they have preload adjustment?

[Tollbooth]

Back off the adjustment knob to lighten the spring load until the bike bottoms out at bumps. Then add 2 turns. If it won,t bottom out, change the spring to the next size lighter. These shocks were on My last 3 baggers. Great thing about em is the adjustability.

With those shocks and a Sundowner seat, the center of gravity will feel lower, and your feet will touch down even nicer.

Haven't had a chance to put them on yet. Got the bikes stacked sise by side and the one that I  Want them on is the hardest to get to. They do have pre load adjustment. What I was thinking about the springs wasn't sure they would be right for my weight. The marking on the springs B20175 03-1351. If I knew what spring would be right for my weight at 190 as I always ride solo I would look for them before I install them. Went thru this with a set of pro action and changed the springs, but they beat me up so bad I sold them.
