Cool

Looks like they're a bit thin on the ground at present! We could use a willing volunteer.....

I have their shocks on my 2012 FLHX and I love them...For the price, they couldn't be beat and Mike is a straight shooter.

No more harsh jolts in my back or my brides when going over expansion joints

FWIW, I did get the 1 inch shorter shock and I now hear they have a fork kit available now.

I’ve been emailing Noah on information on the Black hills shocks they have.They also have a coupon worth $100 when you check out.$499 is a great deal.Their 12 “ shock will give me 12.5 of travel. I’m going to sleep on it .

How do you get 12.5" travel out of a 12 inch shock (unless there is some sort of link).? Or is it simply 2.5 inches?
