Well, as you can see by my Sig I am now on a Tri-Glide. I ordered a set of JRI B-12's from Howard back in January and only put a couple of hundred miles on them before I had hip replacement surgery on March 4th. Have not been able to ride until about a month ago and then on April 9th I dislocated the same hip. Needless to say the Wife was pretty nervous about her getting on a 2 wheeler with me, especially since I'm short and she was worried about me being able to hold the bike up. Hence at her suggestion we decided to trade in my 2011 Ultra for a 2013 Tri-Glide.

Howard set the JRI B-12 shocks based on a 220# driver and a 160# rider, riding 30% solo and 70% 2-up. Paid close to $800 bucks. Will sell for $600 bucks, via paypal only, shipped CON US only. I'll post pictures later but the shocks are spotless and scratchless. PM me if you are interested.

Default Don't do it.

Your new bikes shocks suck. If you wish we can change the JRI's to work on your new Tri-Glide but call me on that. I have no problem helping you out on this. You may have to ride to Fort Lauderdale for a month or two. After hitting the topless bars and late night haunts, when we have no more money left, we than can start to work on your shocks. Call for details and how we can get er' done.

Thanks Howard, but I'd need to make these 13" shocks and making adjustments to the preload would be a monumental pain in the asssss the way the Tri-Glide Shocks are mounted.
