🏍️ The 944 Series Shocks combine ultra touring comfort with a custom lowered appearance. Designed for riders who want the travel and ride quality of a 13” shock while maintaining the look of a 12” unit, these shocks deliver controlled, confidence-inspiring handling.
- Unique ultra touring spring configuration provides the superb ride quality and suspension travel of a 13” shock but the custom lowered look of a 12” shock.
- Ultra Low Series shocks are designed to sit even lower; 2” lower than a stock Touring model.
- With the QPS upgrade kit installed on 444 Series and 944 Series shocks, it’s no longer necessary to remove saddlebags to adjust sag when switching between single and two-up riding configurations.
- QPS upgrade kit utilizes a sealed gear drive to smoothly adjust preload and offers the same range of preload adjustment as the original 444 or 944 series shock from the factory.
- Built around Progressive Suspension’s Frequency Sensing Technology (FST) to sense bump frequency and automatically adjust damping for superior ride quality.
- 944 FST Ultra Touring shocks are available in three configurations: Standard (up to 250 lbs.), Heavy-duty (250 to 350 lbs.), and Super heavy-duty (350+ lbs.). Super heavy-duty is recommended for bikes operating above the manufacturer’s maximum load rating more than half the time.
- Unique spring combination delivers a lower rider height while ridden or on a side stand for better low-speed control and parking.
- Adjust spring preload by hand; no special tool needed.
- Progressive rate mainsprings specifically designed for touring models and high-pressure gas charged for consistent performance.
- Made in the USA.
🔧 Before purchasing or attempting to install shocks that differ from OEM length, confirm that wheel travel and clearance will not be compromised — check for possible swingarm/axle to exhaust contact, chain or belt guard interference, or tire contact.
