shocks

There are varying degrees of comfort related to how much money you want to spend. I have run air ride on my softail (2 different air rides) for the last 4 years. I think the ride from the 422's is junk. If you are going to stick with a regular shock spend the extra for the Werks performance, it is worth it.
If you are willing to spend a little bit more, get an air ride and experience what comfort is all about.

Just put the 422s on this afternoon. Maybe you gotta break them in, but so far, I'm in agreement with Drew. I got a pretty good price on them, but I think I could have put the money to better use elsewhere. I've only been on two trips around the block, but I tried to hit every pothole and manhole cover to see how they were. Wow, I had them set to the lowest position and the ride was STIFF! Raised the ride height about 3/4" and went around the block again. A little better, but not $300 better. I'll keep them on through summer and then decide whether they stay or go.

Took me a little while to find that sweet spot with the 422's but once I got it then it rode nice and still does. I ride that bike alone so I don't know if I'd have to change the setting with a passenger. Probably though.
That's what makes the Shotgun and other air ride shocks so nice. Push a button to lower or raise it or give in more firmness or less. Even when moving. With $1100 in price difference though ...
