A Variety of Motorcycle Shock Absorbers

At Harley-Davidson, we offer several different types of motorcycle shock absorbers. They perform two important functions: supporting the motorcycle's weight with a cushioning or shock-absorbing effect and controlling up-and-down oscillations through damping.

Motorcycle Shocks for Each Specific Harley Model

Each type of motorcycle shock in our inventory pairs with specific models of Harley-Davidson motorcycles. To determine which to use for your bike, check the owner’s manual or consult a certified motorcycle technician. For Harley-Davidson peak performance, we recommend using only original equipment manufacturer (OEM) shocks and only buying them directly from Harley-Davidson. They will provide optimal comfort and longevity compared with many aftermarket optons out there.

When Service is Needed

Our styles come with installation instructions and a one-year limited warranty. The service interval depends on several factors such as driving style, driving conditions, maintenance, and environmental conditions. We suggest following the service interval that Harley-Davidson recommends; find it in the owner’s manual for the motorcycle. A few indications of faulty or worn motorcycle shocks tell when it’s time for service. These include stiff or spongy suspension that causes bumpy or uncomfortable rides, unusual noises or swerving when braking, uneven tread wear on the tires and delayed or sluggish response from the brakes.

If any of these signs occur, it might be time to change the this part or brake pads. One could also consider one of our suspension kits to customize riding experience. It’s important to keep all motorcycle parts in good condition. If continuing to ride with faulty or worn-out motorcycle shocks, you can risk further damage to them and other components of a Harley-Davidson bike.
