Öhlins USA visit. Ohlins suspension upgrade on my 124 ci Harley-Davidson Street Glide Sleeper.

[@richardedwin5980]

Joey is who I bought my shocks from at the Sturgis rally a few years back. The shocks are killer!! Been on two different bikes since I bought them. Still perform like they did when new. Joey is a great representative of Ohlins and I stop in to see him at all the major rallies every year. Every year at Sturgis I have him service my shocks and after they're done it's like brand new shocks all over. Congrats Tall. Great choice!!!!!

[@TravelingTall]

Yep, Joey knows what he's talking about! If I ever trade bikes, the ohlins is coming with me! Just curios, what does he do to service them? Thanks for watching.

[@richardedwin5980]

Traveling Tall...the Ohlins shocks need to be service about every 25K miles. During the service they remove/replace all the fluids and replace every moving part inside the shock as well as seals etc. You can either send them to Ohlins, go there or catch up with them at a rally where they'll slap a loaner set on your bike, service your shocks then put em back on for you the next day or the same day. They'll set up the loaner shocks just like yours. Costs about $200. A lot of folks probably don't do it and never have an issue. But I'm a maintenance stickler and make sure all the needed services are done. Take care of the bike and it'll take care of you I say.

[@itssobreezy]

@@TravelingTall we completely disassemble the shocks, inspect, clean, reassemble them with new seal heads, piston rings, new oil and nitrogen. Internally they will be like new. We are able to provide this service at rallys. $250 for the service. Thanks Richard and Tall!!

[@BrandonWest87]

@@itssobreezy I know it’s been a few years since this comment, but I wanted to say thanks Joey for all of your knowledge and presentation of it. I’ve seen you around in several channels (usually at rallies) and you’re always on point. Hope all is well!

[@royrnc]

I learned to much from this video. Thank you for doing this. Those Ohlins guys know what they are doing!!

[@mojomanmurph1925]

You don't realize how bad the HD factory shocks are until you change them out. If you are going to put on miles, spend the money to upgrade the suspension especially the rear shocks. On the touring line, go with the 13" rear shocks for the supreme ride. Some say you don't need to change out the front for 2017+ models & I agree. I might change out at my 50,000 service depending on how much $$.

[@applicator40usa69]

I just put Ohlins rear shocks on my 2019 Roadglide ultra. The difference is night and day. Much more plush ride, handles alot better. Don't wait,get it done. You won't regret it.

[@Doug_Morgan]

I had a set of Ohlins on my 15 RG. The ride was incredible. They were a pain in the butt to adjust the pre-load every time I took my wife out though. I finally settled on a setting that was a bit soft with her on the bike and a touch stiff solo. You need to keep the threads for the pre-load collars super clean or they bind up. The ride quality is night and day better than stock.

[@amberbali8881]

I agree on being a pain to constantly adjust for passenger or no passenger. Mine are the same way.

[@applicator40usa69]

I had mine done at Daytona bike week. The guys set it up for me. It was so close when they did the set up. I ended up turning them down 2 turns. Excellent

[@Smokedilla]

Thanks, Tall. I put in an order for 774s shortly after this video, and I was able to recently put them on my Street Glide. Unbelievable difference in the ride. If someone intends to keep their bike and enjoy it, then this is easily one of the best investments you can ever make for your machine. I'm so happy, that I intend to do my front end next season. I can only imagine how awesome the ride will be. Cheers.

[@angelvazquez2112]

@traveling tall I commented on your 124 kit build that you need to upgrade your suspension to Ohlins to truly handle the power of your engine. You need to upgrade the front suspension now. I went with the cobranded big bear choppers Ohlins 30nm cartridge kit with 2 inch over stock. I can’t stress enough how awesome that cartridge kit is

[@BigJiggz]

Is that upgrade good for my Softail Deluxe? Or just for Touring bikes?

[@petelarrier1811]

I have Legends Revo-A shocks on my SGS 19. I have similar results. It’s pretty cool that you have a spring for your weight so you have perfect initial sag and have maximum flexibility staring from your weight. That’s an advantage I believe Ohlins offers of Legend. I echo what everyone is saying. You will see a dramatic difference in upgrading your suspension. Don’t go cheap either on the shock change and it’s just as important to setup initially for you weight based on instructions provided. The experience is very different based on setup. This upgrade is about $900 ish depending on what you decide but over stock you will not be disappointed. Thanks Tall for another awesome video and good mix of education and fun.

[@ejdtm]

I put the 13” Ohlins on my RGS and it made the bike feel more planted and handled much better on the mountain twisties and the high speed sweepers. I’ll be doing the forks next (when I save up)

[@cavscout62]

People always complain about the SG series having crappy shocks but what I don’t understand is why did you buy it in it’s slammed self then? The whole slammed look comes at the price of reduced shock travel Doh! My 2019 EGS is set up the same way and I knew I’d be swapping the shocks for some 13” shocks, one of the reasons I shopped hard for a year for this bike was I knew this going in. I bought this bike with 2k miles on it for about 6k+ less than buying it brand new because to me buying off the showroom floor is just silly. You are gonna lose thousands of dollars the minute you sign and leave the dealership parking lot so let someone else take that hit, especially if you are gonna modify. Love your mods Tall.

[@BrandonWest87]

I bought new because I know of all the goofy nonsense people do to bikes, how lackluster their maintenance habits are, how most of them are all “intake and exhaust!” without ever tuning it (which results in a lean and hot condition frying exhaust valves and seats), how most are piss-poor at clutch control and burn up clutch packs, on and on and on. I do all my own work and have been down the rabbit hole of used vehicles. Some folks are REALLY good about hiding damage and poor maintenance habits. Buying used is a crapshoot, sometimes it works out in your favor and it’s a great vehicle for a great price that just needs typical new suspension, brakes, and consumables (like my Navigator I picked up for $15k, that thing is a beast), or it can be like the 04 Civic I picked up which had the wrong ATF in it, never had the transmission fluid changed, suspension bushings were shot, speakers were shot, headliner started sagging, tires were horrible, brake fluid was never flushed, coolant never flushed, etc. New prevents the exercise of discovering all of that and sometimes, I just wanna buy it and ride it without worrying.

[@ridemfast7625]

13'ers are the way to go! The Ohlins reps are the best. Always available, helpful and knowledgeable. The Ohlins team took care of my shocks that were supposed to be "custom built" by a con artist in Florida and clearly were not. If you hit the twisties, doing the front will transform the bike again.

[@mattmorse3337]

RidemFast Could you advise what shop? I’m in Florida and was planning visiting a local shop that specializes in Öhlins. I want to make sure I don’t bring my business there.

You have to admit, HD does give its customers many opportunities to make their machines better. Brilliant marketing really.

[@TravelingTall]

A stock 107 is a strong motor. I had no issues going from the East Coast to the West Coast fully packed down. I never once complained about the suspension because I didn't know any different. Before the Öhlins install I would have told you it was fine. Now I see how big a deal the shocks make. Harley-Davidson makes a great bike stock, but from day one I knew that I wanted to do some upgrades. That's the reason I bought a standard. A stock Street Glide is still a great motorcycle.

Posers indeed.

[@rfasano18]

I have the black version of these shocks on my 18 street glide special, and the difference from stock is night and day. Just this past week I installed the Ohlins FKS228 fork cartridges that just recently came out for the 2017-20 touring bikes. The overall improvement in feel and handling of theses cartridges compared to the stock damper rod system is extremely good. I can't recommend this highly enough. It's obvious that the stock rear shocks suck, which is why I changed them shortly after buying the bike, but I didn't really think the front shocks were that bad until I put these Ohlins cartridges in.
