BEST Suspension for HARLEY DAVIDSON Street Glide

[@RidingintheOzarks]

What Suspension would you choose and Why?

[@2trdmustanggtfordf1hdsgsfa80]

I did front and rear legends on my 14 SGS @ 50k. Used 13 inch rear shock over the original 12 inches. Got 70k now, really improved all aspects of ride. Seems I get better tire wear as well. I would buy legends again.

[@HDR20]

Progressive wouldn't make my top five. I did Legend Revo A in 13 inches. Ohlins, Fox, Rwd and Super Shox would be my top five

[@jasonbreedlove495]

Great video and a ton of info. So on both bikes I went FOX. On my 2017 SGS I did HD spring kit, and then a set of 13" IFP-QSR FOX with dampening adjustment. On my 21 RKS I've only done the rear 13" FOX ifp-qsr. Both bikes ride night and day difference, especially the heavier SG with the springs as the bike holds a track alot better and at more speed. I can ride solo or 2 up with alot more confidence and comfort. I like FOX for the reputation and price point, as I can't see shelling out 1k for rears let alone adding the front. Think I have maybe 1100 across 2 bikes and that includes front install at a shop. Also you can still turn the adjuster by hand.

I have SCULLY air ride on my 2014 Streetglide Firefighter Shrine out of Wisconsin 😎🇺🇸

[@billyjimbob65]

I did 13” fox rears on my rushmore SGS around 40k miles. Swapped to Pro Action 13” rears about 45k miles, WOW WOW. Was so impressed also installed Pro Action fork kit. Now got 54k miles

[@jerrydelatorre5977]

Like you, I did a lot of research… legends, progressive, oghlin’s and las Wilber’s. Luckily for me, I have friends with all these except for the Wilber’s… they were all good.. liked them all. I kept reading about Wilber’s… what I like about it, is that you set it and forget it… you add a passenger or luggage, it adjust itself. So I bought them… went to Sturgis with my lady and about 40 lbs of luggage… let me tell you… loved them… didn’t have to worry about adjusting as it did it on its own… never bottomed out. The curves at needles highway felt so good… so look into Wilber’s… I bought them at Laidlaw’s Harley Davidson ( yes, from Matt Laidlaw, very cool dude) for 1,800 for front and rear. Check them out.

[@ryanlerch5926]

Have progressive suspension on my wide glide and its good for what I use the bike for just a bar hopper. Went with fox on my ultra limited and they are amazing, went with fox because I'm from the north and have experience with them from snowmobiling going back to the 90s and for many years no other shock came close to the performance you got with fox.

[@gregmannos]

My Progressive 944 were WAY to stiff, even on the softest setting. I have a 2014 Ultra and after a few hours of riding the bike was making my ass feel like I was the new guy on the cell block. I went with Legend rear shocks. I've heard the expression "Night & Day" difference, but it was justified here. I can not emphasize it in this message the ride difference.

[@joehansen4889]

I bought and installed Super Shox. 1000% better the stock Harley shocks!

[@JA-zh5xi]

I agree - the only person with an air ride system in our group had it fail. It was one of the more expensive ones on the market. No thanks.

What a great content, very helpful for me and anyone who is shopping for bagger suspensions for the first time. I love the approach of setting the budget first and then technical analysis. I always remind myself, any part for my Harley is just what I want, not what I need, so budget must come first. Thanks for this video!

[@user-dm9ij3rx2q]

I have Fox IFP-QSR 12" since 2021 season and those are the best I've had. I also tested friend bikes with Ohlin's and they are not better. I live in Quebec where streets have more potholes than actual asphalt. I've set up the QSR to their more responsive setting and this is awesome! I recommand without hesitation!

Hello Wanderin Bear Here by way of Montana/Arizona THANKS MAN for taking the time out of your life to help the cause. Better ridding, means longer riding, mean more ride, enough said! IN THE WIND AND GONE hang loose and lose the watch!!!!

[@timkeane7469]

I think you made an excellent choice. I owned an 08 Road King and put on Progressive 944s and the mono suspension back in 2012 and loved it! Like riding on rails for me. I have legends front and rear on my 14 FreeWheeler now and like them as well but of course a different type of ride. Had a slight problem with the damping knob on one of the rears but was sent a replacement with free freight return with no hassle.

[@roadglide1142]

I did the the Ohlin’s remote reservoir rear shocks on my 2022 Roadglide Limited . Absolutely luv them ! I’ll be doing the front cartridges over the winter .

[@RidingintheOzarks]

Suspension can really change the way a bike feels...

[@ewetho]

As a heavier guy I have been looking and settled on RaceTech. Hopefully sooner than later.. built to order a bit of a wait.

[@MichaelH416]

H~D stock touring suspension 2014-2022 was a main spring coil over, and a slave spring. You really only adjust 1 side. (left side). The right side tries to keep up with a much softer spring. My right side spring failed. It caused wobble and I was 2 up at the time it happened. We heard the spring fail. It was loud. I replaced the stock rear suspension with Legends Revo-A’s. What a world of difference. Loved it so much, I did front and rear right away on my next bike.

[@brocsmith2153]

Super Shox made in USA adjust by hand life time warranty under $900 for rear

[@randallhoward2162]

‘19 RK rider here and really appreciate your help! At 190 lbs and mostly solo riding the stock rear shocks are way too stiff even at the loosest setting so am considering an upgrade. Besides improving ride comfort, your vid makes some other really good points re: suspension travel and ride height that I hadn’t thought of. Well done!

[@RidingintheOzarks]

Glad it helped you!

Iv ran progressive 944 and was very pleased with them, I'm now using super shox on my current bike and absolutely love them. I haven't done the front yet though. I'm in NE Oklahoma and ride the Ozarks 90%of the time, love the area!!

[@roycarlson6783]

Did same exact thing,progressives to supershox...great shocks!!!

[@toddmichaels42]

RICOR makes some excellent shocks and also valves for your forks. Lifetime warranty... very high quality machining.

[@FlipandTheBlueMule]

I have Suspension Technologies system.... after 2 years it would bottom out if I hit a sinkhole in the road. I called them up And WITHOUT HESITATIONBI WAS GIVEN A BRAND NEW SET.... "LIFETIME WARRANTY "

[@RidingintheOzarks]

Great to hear!

[@ridethepace6005]

I'm going with the Wilbers self leveling shocks . No tools or adjustments needed after initial setup, and the shocks level out the ride even after adding a passenger/ gear. Pricey, but for the benefits and for the German engineering, Ill save up.

[@RidingintheOzarks]

I here good things about them, just out of my budget...

[@tommiller8714]

Good video! I'm also running the Progressive FST Kit on my front end; got it for $500 plus tx (almost half the cost of Legends). Out back, I'm running RWD fully adjustable 13" Shocks (stock OE were 12" and not much adjustability)that have the reservoir attached to the shock body and are fully adjustable (got these for $900; the others [Legends, Ohlins, HD-SE/Ohlins, etc.] were all around $1500 or more. My setup works excellent for my style of riding (mostly 2-up, some hills/mountains, lot of along the beach So. Cal.). Tom M., '21 RGS, 114 Stage-2. Too many upgrades/mods to list (S&S, Fuel Moto, Dynojet PV3b, Saddlemen Road Sofa, HD, Dakota Digital, Rockford-Fosgate, Klock Werks, Trask, SirrusXM, etc., etc.)

[@kennethperry1679]

[@HDVIBE]

Great overview Mike. Sounds like a great solution. I just put legends on the RGS. Huge improvement in Ride comfort over the 12 inch stock rear shocks. I may do the front over the winter. Ride safe 👍👊🇺🇸

[@RidingintheOzarks]

Thanks Rick! I hear good things about Legends!

[@Azzow15]

I installed the Wilburs nivamat system, abosolutely fantastic if switching weights and pillon alot as it self adjusts the height automatically, but if you ride solo id recommend you go with Ozarks progressive recommendations. Great Great video thankyou

[@johnedwards678]

I just installed 13" PS 490 shocks and their cartridge front end kit on my 2012 SG for under $1000. The install was very easy and the forks were due a rebuild anyway. I have about 50k miles and should have made this upgrade a long time ago. It feels like a completely different bike, with a much safer, confident feel. No bottoming with a nice firm sporty feel. I love Ohlins and have them on my 1198s ducati but the Progressive Suspension are a high quality option that's reasonably priced. To be honest my SG doesn't need a very pricey suspension when the PS front and rear do a great job. I like the PS 490 shocks with aluminum body, easy compression/rebound adjustment better than the PS 944 or similar touring type PS shock. If anyone has ridden their bikes with the oem air ride rear and antiquated front damper rod system the $1000 front and rear upgrade will significantly change the vague feeling and bottoming out oem suspension.

[@jerrykruse8807]

I have been running the progressive 944s and the front cartridge shocks for about 2 years now on my 2018 flhx and I am completely satisfied. I think you will be happy.

[@RidingintheOzarks]

Thanks Jerry

[@gldixon86]

Do you think the 944 are a huge improvement in ride softness vs the stiff stock air???

[@KindredGh0st]

Hey! New harley RGL owner here. I have less than 500 miles on my bike but felt that it needed a suspension upgrade. It was jarring going over railroad tracks and hearing everything rattle. I went with Legends Axeo and Revo A. The difference is night and day. I almost went with the Fox, but it seems that there aren't as many people on those as Legends. I hope I made the right choice. I also look forward to a long term review Mike!

[@ridethepace6005]

Another option for front suspension would be DK Custom makes a drop in valve for front forks that rivals cartridge systems, but at around $250 with their oil, it's a no brainier compared to some of the $800- $1000 offerings from competitors.

Would love to have an update to this since youve been on em for 9 montgs now. I really like the FST aspect. I do a 50/50 solo 2 up loaded and unloaded and dont want to take a calculus college course to adjust my suspension.

Good review Mike ! Like you I decided to upgrade my suspension after 40K(+) miles on my HD TRIKE for the same reason. (Suspension getting rougher and bottoming out) I went with the LEGENDS front and rear and added the Trike Rear Lift kt. I absolutely LUV the ride now. Steering is even EZ'r. I choose Legends for the reputation and lifetime warranty. If I tried to do all the research you did I would just confuse myself !!! THANKS for sharing your videos !!!

You’re right about wanting to have your front end more planted. I had Legend Shocks front and rear on my 2012 Dyna Super Glide. Now with a HD 2020 Street Glide stock. I’m looking for a reason to change the current factory rear suspension. I just dialed the knob to about no. 4 on the rear factory rear shocks solo rider. However I do already know I want Legend front shocks to keep it in a straight line so it will be planted firmly and track more efficiently. Thank you

Outstanding video my friend and thank you for the info. I have a new 2023 Road Glide Limited and the stock suspension is worse than a hard tail. Seriously. What was HD thinking? I want a soft and plush ride, 75/25 solo or two-up respectively. Suggestions?

[@RidingintheOzarks]

A lot depends on your budget, a lot of shocks are rated for under 250 pounds and under or got to heavy duty if over 250. Which makes that transition from solo to 2 up difficult

[@Elkslaya1]

RS1 for me on my ‘22 SGST

[@velikijoxotnik]

Thanks! I"m about to upgrade the suspension on my Road Glide. I'd pretty much decided on the Legend Revo-A. However, I was going to have to stay with the 12", since I'm only 5'6". The extra travel on the Progressive 944 is very appealing, and I'm going to look into them some more before dropping any coin on upgrade suspension hardware. My plan is to upgrade the rear suspension first, then do the front sometime down the road. I'll find this out when I research the Progresssives, but do they have adjustments for both the slump and the rebound?

[@RidingintheOzarks]

Not on the 944 because of the FST…

[@Ozzie8404]

An extra 1/2 always matters.

[@Big88Country]

Hey Brother, appreciate the information. Are you still satisfied with the progressive suspension? I have 17 CVO Ultra, and the suspension is just so, so, to me anyway. I ride 2 up a lot, also single a lot. I think I am going to Wilbers because it is a self adjusting system and I'm like you, I probably won't adjust the shocks for the 2 up or single rider, heck, I don't do it now so I don't see anything changing. What I have learned about Wilbers has got my attention and I can't find anything where people are trash talking them. They are a little more expensive than what I want to pay, but I'm only doing this once!! After writting this, I see jerrydelatorre5977 already wrote about the Wilbers and he loves them too apparently. Still saving up for them, so hopefully I can get them installed before this coming winter. That's A LOT OF MONEY for some dang shocks!!! Appreciate what ya do for the community Brother, ride safe!!!

I am happy but primarily ride solo so I don’t have to adjust them, if I could afford Wilber’s I would have looked harder at them.

[@Big88Country]

@@RidingintheOzarks Yeah man, they are proud of them for sure!!!

[@ut1004bp]

I believe the Ohlins and Legends both have life time warranty's, and the 12' rear shocks also have the 3" of travel.. that price you quote for the Progressive 944 is about the same as for the mid grade Ohlins and Legends.. now for the fork suspension system, yea the Progressive FST asymmetrical cartridge system looks like a good buy, however I didn't like the single, super-duty single spring design, so I passed on it. Yep budget minded too, but just about the first thing I did on the Street Glide, and the first thing on the Road King I did, change out that junk suspension and kept the same shock lengths. For the 21 street glide: 12" base model Ohlins, and for the front, Progressive springs with Ricor Cartridge Intiminators, for the 2020 Road King: 13" Bitubo Twin adjustables (rebuildable with 2 year warranty) in the rear, and Progressive springs with Ricor Cartridge Intiminators.. total cost would have been I think lower than your options that you are leaning towards.. In both cases, my front suspension upgrades seem still to be out performing the rear suspension up grades on both bikes (and that's about right since you tend to fell more suspension short comings in the rear) Note: Besure to select the appropriate spring rates for your rear shocks!

[@RidingintheOzarks]

The Ohlin do not publish a warranty on their website and if you research it seems you have to take it up with the dealer if you have issues. They do not publish travel specs for the either of the 12" shocks that I can find, if you can find it in print send it to me. The price is not the same IMO the most Affordable setup was $1460 for Ohlin which is not far off but Ohlin Mid grade option HD159 (Rear) was another $300. Legends were $1700-1900. I am looking at $1300 with this setup.

[@ut1004bp]

@@RidingintheOzarks The front fork upgrades cost me $350, and Bitubo Twin adjustable shocks cost $500-550 (depending on the retailer. The Ohlins HD-039 rear shock are about $675 retail. depending on which of these two rear shocks one choses, a full suspension up grade would cost either less than $900 or just over $1000..

[@johnspringer3951]

Thank you. Great review. What kind of bike does your gf have?

[@JaySorsby1]

I’m have this very dilemma. If you could only do one? Front or rear?

[@RidingintheOzarks]

Rear if only one but depending on setup I would probably look at better springs and new oil at least if can’t do a cartridge front right now.

[@ut1004bp]

I dont know what bike you are referring to, but If only front or rear was the choice, spend your hard earn money on rear suspension up grade first,

You know, for the money I paid, harley should have used the best suspension and you wouldn't have had to do this video

[@RidingintheOzarks]

Good suspension has to be tuned for your setup, even aftermarket suspension requires you to pick standard, heavy or extra heavy springs for different weights. To get the best ride solo, I chose a setup that isn’t great for 2 up. HD stock is decent for wide range of setups. And if they added better suspension you will pay more…

@@RidingintheOzarks we've already paid the more on initial purchase!!

[@RidingintheOzarks]

@@loriendastafford1760 I get there expensive, I get the suspension isn’t great but I can tell you the new suspension on the CVO is an improvement and let’s hope those changes roll down to other models next year.
