Progressive 422 Shocks W/ RAP For Harley Softail 2000-2017
nstant Tuning: Progressive 422 Shocks W/ RAP for Harley Softail (2000-2017)
The Harley-Davidson Twin Cam Softail platform (Fat Boy, Heritage, Deluxe, Night Train) from 2000 to 2017 offers classic aesthetics, but the suspension adjustment is notoriously inconvenient. To change the preload on the stock shock, you often have to remove parts or awkwardly reach into the frame.
The Progressive Suspension 422 Series Shocks with RAP (Remote Adjustable Preload) solves this issue, delivering vast performance improvements and making adjustment effortless—a necessity for any rider who rides solo one day and loaded the next.
Accessibility Mastered with Remote Adjustable Preload (RAP)
The RAP system is the ultimate convenience upgrade for this generation of Softail. Instead of the preload adjuster being fixed directly to the shock body, a flexible steel cable connects it to an easy-to-reach remote knob.
Effortless Adjustments: Simply turn the exterior RAP knob—usually mounted discreetly near the saddlebag or swingarm—to dial in your preload instantly, without tools or hassle.
Essential for Two-Up Riding: This makes the 422 W/ RAP the best shock upgrade for Softail two-up riding. Quickly firm up the support for your passenger and luggage, and quickly soften it back for a solo cruise.
Lowering and Comfort Without Compromise
Beyond convenience, the 422 Series is a significant ride quality upgrade:
Adjustable Ride Height: This single mono-tube shock features adjustable length, allowing you to choose your stance. You can maintain stock height or safely lower your Softail up to 2 inches for that popular custom look, all while drastically improving the ride over stock.
Superior Damping: The Progressive damper provides controlled compression and rebound, absorbing small bumps for a plush feel and effectively eliminating the harsh bottoming out common on the stock 2000-2017 Softail models.
Upgrade your Twin Cam Fat Boy or Deluxe suspension today with the Progressive 422 W/ RAP. Experience the perfect blend of slammed looks, premium comfort, and instant control.
