Progressive Suspension 444 Series Heavy-Duty Shock Absorber - 13 Inch Chrome (Part #444-4020C)
The Progressive Suspension 444 Series Shock Absorber is engineered for demanding riding conditions, offering a superior combination of durability and performance. Featuring innovative Frequency Sensing Technology (FST), these shocks automatically adjust damping based on the frequency of bumps encountered, providing a smoother and more controlled ride across various terrains. The deflective disc valving ensures consistent damping characteristics, while the pre-load spring can be easily adjusted by hand without the need for special tools, allowing for quick tuning to suit rider preferences and load conditions.
Constructed with a high-pressure gas charge and a progressive-rate spring, the 444-Series shocks deliver reliable performance and improved handling. They are designed with specific length variations in mind; slightly longer shocks can enhance steering responsiveness by quickening the steering, while slightly shorter shocks may slow steering for a different riding feel. When considering installation, ensure your wheel travel can accommodate these length changes without risking clearance issues such as contact with the exhaust, chain or belt guard, or tires.
Made in the USA, these shocks are recommended for heavy-duty applications, especially for bikes operating near or at maximum load capacity over 50% of the time. Their robust construction and advanced damping technology make them suitable for riders demanding high performance and durability from their suspension components. Whether upgrading for improved ride quality or enhanced handling, the Progressive Suspension 444 Series Shock Absorber offers a reliable solution for serious riders seeking longevity and superior performance in a chrome finish for a sleek look.
