Series 422 Shock Absorber - Progressive Suspension (Ref. 422-4104C)
Designed for Softail chassis and touring/classic motorcycles, the Series 422 shock absorber features an externally accessible preload adjustment via the RAP system. This quick adjustment allows you to adapt the spring tension according to the load or the presence of a passenger without disassembling the suspension. The chrome body and internal reservoir provide a neat finish suitable for vintage and touring machines.
Before installation, it is essential to ensure that the chosen length does not alter the wheel clearance to the point of causing contact between the swingarm/axle and the exhaust. For heavy usage (load close to the manufacturer's maximum for a large part of the time), reinforced applications are recommended. Compatible with many Harley-Davidson Softail models (e.g., FXSE Pro Street Breakout, FLSTFBS Fat Boy S, FLSS Softail Slim S depending on year and specification), please confirm the exact fit for your model before purchase.
