I brought my 2016 Road Glide S in today for the 1,000 mile inspection today. While there I had Super Shox installed. Two weeks ago I traded in my 15 Road Glide FLTRX, That had a not so bad ride. I knew that the S was more harsh.
I put over 100 miles on after the installation on all types of Roads. What a difference. Even on the smooth interstate at 80mph you could feel the difference on ride and handling. It was more precise in handling and ride was not waffeling.

Nice shocks make a TON of difference. Not sure about the new models...but boy the progressive suspension mono tubes made a huge difference in my front as well!

A couple of weeks ago I change the back out to Ohlin HD 772 shocks. I had previously done the front with Progressive monotubes. World of difference from stock. Tracks like it's on rails now. You are going to love what a great suspension feels like.

Me likey my Super Shox! Best ride so far on any bike I have owned. When I talked to Brian from Super Shox at the Chicago IMS show he was thinking there will be something in the works for Harley front suspensions in the future.

After talking to Brian at Supershox several times I ordered a set of supershox through McGrath Harley in Iowa City. Finally got out for a nice ride today and these things are great. They are easy to adjust and the ride is fantastic. If you are looking for shocks you should check these out. A great ride and the best looking shocks out there. Just my 2 cents!!!!!

I think direct they may run around 629 a pair. The couple dealers I checked with were the same or a few $ more. That may sound expensive but a good ride is not cheap. I really like mine and I have no connection with supershox other than being a happy customer.

What was the price on this setup? Can only get direct quotes from website.
What area are you in? Depending on that you could pay them a visit or check with Super Shox to see if they have any dealers in your area. You might find them a little cheaper that way. They do offer a 30 day trial as well which is awesome.

I got a set from Brian at Super Shox last week. They were 629. Since I'm in IL and had to pay tax they were 690 to my door.
I called Brian, told him my weight, how often solo and what passenger weight is and he set then up. I ordered on Tuesday at 9am and they were delivered next day. I am 6 hours away from him.
