If you have the coin, get the Ohlins, Pro action or any other premium shock. But on my bike I bought a set of 13" shocks from a 2017 Rushmore, got them off Ebay for about $250. For the money there good.

I’m not certain if there is much of a difference between the part numbers you listed to the ones that come stock on the 17+ model years, but I think I remember that when the 17’s rolled out, that lots of members were bragging about the improvement on these shocks. After taking a demo ride on an 18 RG, and feeling the suspension difference from my air shocks I started looking for a set on eBay. I just bought a set of the hand adjustable shocks that were taken off an 18 with 1200 miles on it. Got em on eBay for $185.00.

I didn’t want to spend the big bucks for shocks, and didn’t even want to spend almost $200 that I did. I stayed with the 12” version to keep the same ride height. I should have them on Monday, and am anxious to see how they do.


As as a side note, you can look up the part numbers for the 18’s on Ronnie’s, and order them brand new from Boardtracker for about $450.

Super Shox’s on the rear, Race Tech Springs with gold valving in the tubes, HUGE difference in the ride, the combination works very well.
