Drag Specialties Ride Height Adjustable Shocks For Harley Touring 1984-2025
That is a vast fitment range! The Drag Specialties Ride Height Adjustable Shocks are a very popular and affordable performance upgrade for the wide family of Harley-Davidson Touring models (FLHT, FLHR, FLHX, FLTR) from the 1984 Evo era all the way through the current models.
They offer a significant improvement over the stock air-assist shocks that came standard on many of those bikes.
Here is a detailed breakdown of the features, fitment, and benefits for your Harley Touring model:
Drag Specialties Ride Height Adjustable Shocks (Touring 1984-2025)
These shocks are a great value, combining key adjustability features with an improved coil-over damping system.
Key Features
Ride-Height Adjustability: This is the most crucial feature for riders who want a specific stance. The shocks allow for a ride-height adjustment of ±1/2 inch from the advertised length.
Benefit: This allows for precise tuning to level the bike, account for weight differences, or achieve a slightly lowered or raised look while keeping performance. For shorter riders, the ability to drop the rear end a half-inch can make the difference for flat-footing.
Adjustable Spring Preload: The shocks feature adjustable collars that allow you to set the spring tension (preload) using a spanner wrench.
Benefit: This is essential for a Touring bike, allowing you to easily adjust the stiffness for riding solo versus riding with a passenger and heavy luggage.
Monotube Construction: They use nitrogen-charged steel monotube damper bodies with hard chrome-plated shafts. This is a superior design to stock, providing more consistent damping performance and resistance to fade.
Dual-Rate Progressive Wound Springs: The springs are designed to be softer initially (for small road bumps and comfort) and then progressively get stiffer deeper into the travel to prevent harsh bottoming-out.
Aesthetic Options: Available in popular finishes like Chrome and Black.
Drag Specialties Ride Height Adjustable Shocks For Harley Touring
Not sure exactly what height shocks will make your bike handle best? No problem; these shocks are designed with an adjustable ride height for +/- 1/2″ from the size listed as well as an adjustable spring pre-load. The nitrogen-charged steel monotube damper bodies are made with hard chrome-plated shafts and dual-rate progressive wound springs that offer a smooth, comfortable ride.
Features:
Chrome shocks feature chrome springs and damper bodies with clear anodized aluminum end caps and eyelets
Black shocks feature black springs and damper bodies with black aluminum end caps and eyelets
Shocks easily mount with your existing hardware
Sold as a pair
Note: Lowering the motorcycle will reduce ground and cornering clearance. 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 or axle to exhaust contact, as well as chain or belt guard or tire contact. OEM upper shock mount covers will not fit with these shocks.
