I was going to get the progressive 430 at first but changed my mind, ordered these shocks from Latus Harley Oregon 2 days ago, one day fast shipping to WA, put them on this evening, these are the low profile RK shocks, measure exact same height. Now I am waiting for a sunny day to try them out, stay tuned!

 

I suppose it's too cold to check out the ride quality eh?

 

Tomorrow is gonna be 46f hi, you tell me lol, I'm taking it out for a spin!

 

I am very interested...

Were there any problems during installation, or everything is bolt-on?

And one more question ... I think their places must be reversed and the air valve is up?

 

Yeah I think you need to swap them so the air valve is pionting up.?

 

I wont matter which way they are mounted but with the valves up filling them will be easier. Make sure you are using a shock pump and NOT a compressor or you'll blow the seals. Start about 15psi and go up 5lbs at a time - I run mine about 25psi most of the time.

 

I don't want the valves pointing up, so I install them up side down, hate to show them.
Installation is easy, shouldn't take more than 20 mins for both side, I cannot reuse the top chrome covers though, the chrome cover is out of place anyway, don't mind at all.

 

Why? Take a look at the RK and SG, the air ports point down attached to air hoses, the ports are made for putting air in, I can't see why you want the valves up, I know everyone place the valves up, not me .

 

What do those price out at? They look good.

 

Thanks for the headsup, I never thought of that, was going to use a compressor to charge them, thanks for stopping me lol . Either way is easy to fill air, I like to hide the valves if I could. Do you think I can use air from gas station? Pressure shouldn't be that high anyway.
