DRAG SPECIALTIES Shock Absorber (manufacturer ref. C16-0122) — Rear monotube suspension made of steel, designed for roadsters, particularly Sportsters. Sturdy steel body with hard chrome-plated shafts, progressive springs, and internal reservoir for consistent on-road performance. Designed to provide a smooth and comfortable ride while maintaining a black/chrome look that complements classic machines.
Installation with existing mounting hardware: however, note that OEM upper mounting covers are not compatible with these shocks. Lowering the bike reduces ground clearance (especially in corners) — before installing shocks of a different length, check the travel and space around the swingarm, axle, and exhaust to avoid any contact.
Ideal reference for Harley-Davidson Sportster owners (e.g. Forty-Eight, Superlow) seeking a robust solution with authentic style, without compromising mechanical reliability.
