I like that the reservoir is next to the shock body. Great video clearly explained and made me feel like I could do it

[@RAIDERWORLD]

These are a great design! Thank You, I’m happy this video was helpful

[@Chaplain161]

Just about any aftermarket suspension is better than what comes stock on most HDs. I went with a different brand a few years ago. I really noticed the most difference with the front. No more front-end diving when you hit the front brakes and the front tire feels planted in the corners. Great video. You are really thorough in explaining and demonstrating the process of the installation.

[@RAIDERWORLD]

Absolutely! Upgrading that front and rear suspension adds a whole other meaning to riding. Thank You for watching 🤘🏽

[@danbarrette9888]

Because I value your opinion now I have to look at a third shock to replace the stock crap Harley puts out. Also looking at JRI and Nowaskey. So far RWD are 800 less expensive which could go towards the front end. Decisions !

[@RAIDERWORLD]

That’s awesome! Thank You. I absolutely enjoy this suspension from RWD, Front and Rear.

[@tealbagger]

Love my RS-1s. On my 3rd pair over 3 bikes. Bar none the best aftermarket shock ive had on any of my bikes. Probably won't swap or change out for the RS-2 until it's time for another bike, but I'll forever run RWD on my bikes.

[@RAIDERWORLD]

An all around great suspension! Can’t wait to see what they come up with next.

[@2147crew]

I’m gonna have to check them out.

[@RAIDERWORLD]

Absolutely! Couldn’t ask for a better smoother ride

[@PackersFlip]

Its good to see something different other than Legends or Screaming Eagle. So is this your personal choice? Or sponsorship?

[@RAIDERWORLD]

Absolutely! This was a personal choice when they were first released. I was blown away by its performance, then truly blessed by a sponsorship on the second go around 🤘🏽

[@Bagrman-kt1ot]

Like your work🤩🤩🤩

[@RAIDERWORLD]

Thank You! I definitely appreciate it

[@peterjpinheiro]

Looks like I’m gonna have to order some new shocks now. ❤

[@RAIDERWORLD]

Haha! These are a great choice 🤘🏽

[@Jim_Berry]

Awesome!

[@RAIDERWORLD]

Thank You 🤘🏽

[@barrymeade5439]

So, a while back, you put on the wilbur's shocks on one of your bikes. I remember you talking about going across the crosstown through downtown and feel like a boat in rough water. Lol, so how are these RS2 compared to the wilbur's?

[@RAIDERWORLD]

I’ve never ridden with Wilber’s suspension. But I can say the RS-2s are amazing 🤘🏽

[@barrymeade5439]

Do you remember which video you were talking about? Riding across the crosstown downtown area and how the shocks were amazing. I thought it was those wilbur's, but evidently not.​@@RAIDERWORLD

[@bigjoe6814]

Excellent content as usual

[@RAIDERWORLD]

Thank You! I appreciate the continued support 🤘🏽

[@BigSkyImagery]

Thanks for this video. RWD actually recommended your video. I ordered a set, and I'm looking forward to installing them. Question- did you have to make any sag adjustments with the spring for 2 up riding, or just adjust the compression knob? Thanks!

[@RAIDERWORLD]

Once I set the sag with my weight and gear only, I rode about 150+ miles, and everything felt great. I only adjusted the knob when I had a passenger, and that worked out great. Now, if you start to feel yourself bottoming out with or without a passenger, I would adjust your preload. Also, if you have saddlebag guards, check to make sure your swingarm is not making contact with that.

[@BigSkyImagery]

@@RAIDERWORLD Awesome, good to know! I do have the saddlebag guards, I have a ‘23 Ultra Limited. What should I be looking for, I don’t understand what you mean. Thanks!

[@RAIDERWORLD]

No problem at all! So you might think that suspension is bottoming out, but it could be that your swingarm is making contact with your saddlebag guard. This is due to improper pre-load. This is rare, and mostly only happens with after market bag guards.

[@BigSkyImagery]

@@RAIDERWORLD ok, thanks! I copy!

[@BigSkyImagery]

Question. I received mine today. Does it matter which side they go on, is there a Right or Left? RWD said to install the way the parts are zip tied, but the way the rings are zip tied there would be two right shocks. Are they universal? Just move the O ring to the other side? Thanks.

[@RAIDERWORLD]

So in the instructions, they have the mounting bolt coming in on the O-Ring/C-Clip side. I don’t really think it matters, but I would mount them like the instructions illustrate. I failed to mention that in the video

[@BigSkyImagery]

@@RAIDERWORLD I have received 2 right shocks then, Because the o ring/c clip side are both on the right side...

[@RAIDERWORLD]

@@BigSkyImagerythere’s no left or right shock. They are both the same

[@BigSkyImagery]

@@RAIDERWORLD ok, thanks!

[@BigSkyImagery]

@@RAIDERWORLD It's just weird because each side is machined just a little bit different. On one side the o ring fits better than the other. (the side without the c ring, it doesn't fit the same)

Thank You 🤘🏽
