need help with adjusting the rear suspension
when my wife and i ride it seems to bottom out.
Any info would be great.

 

Welcome aboard.

Start by reading your owner's manual. You should have the air shocks on that bike. Buy the suspension pump.

 

Scrap the H-D air shocks and buy a set of Progressives or Super Shox or Pro Action.

 

If you do have the air suspension, don't put a regular tire air hose to that shock or you'll ruin it. It takes extremely low air pressure. A micro pump. And yes, if you want an improvement, you might consider a replacement.

 

Book says 50lbs air riding 2-up, regardless of rider/passenger weight.

 

Buy the hand adjustable shocks and throw the air shocks away.

Would the Standard height shocks work on a Limited Low model bike?

 

Those pumps are nice - think you'll discover that you will need to add a bit of air to the standard shocks every now and then.

I decided to change my shocks - so, no longer need my pump. They cost $49.95 from Harley. If someone needs one, let me know and we will try to work something out.

 

Doesn't matter. You will bottom out now and then regardless of the shocks. Our highways are a mess. I replaced my rear shocks with Terry Cables at the Laughlin River Run in Nevada a couple of years ago. My expectations were probably too high. I would say I've experienced a 15 to 20% improvement with the new shocks. I guess I was hoping for more ...

I'd have to agree with Recon4. A bike is a bike is a bike and no matter the shock you'll bottom out here and there. When I put on my progressives I did notice better rear handling in the corners . . .
