Questions & Answers
I can't get a microphone in there because they're on my bike. However, I believe they are 1/2 inch in diameter. It's a 2012 sporty that I'm riding. The bushings are a perfect fit and require 1/2 bolts.
I'm not sure, but if you put them on a sportster, they're a riot.
There are no size adjustments; only preload is required. There are ten of them. 5" from the center of the eyes to the center of the eyes.
The shocks and mounting hardware are the only things missing.

These should undoubtedly be stock on 883 lows. On this bike, my girlfriend was having issues touching her feet flat to the ground and this 110% fixed the problem. With only a 1" drop in shock length, I didn't expect much of a difference, but it completely changed the bike's profile. The installation and testing took about 45 minutes in total. br>br>While the shocks themselves are of excellent quality, the painting or powder coating process (whichever they use) is defective. Both shocks had small areas around the top of each shock where the paint/coat had chipped off down to the metal, but only on one side. I had contacted the manufacturer, who appeared to be eager to assist, but my girlfriend was adamant about getting them on as soon as possible. They might have replaced them for me, I'm sure.
Would be a five-star rating if they looked and worked perfectly. The only issue is that because the factory shock mounts are 1/2" wider, the lower bolt on the right side needs to be replaced with a shorter one to clear the sprocket(pulley). There will not be enough clearance on the sprocket boots if the factory bolts are installed and torqued to spec. Would recommend and order again, but during installation, make sure to replace that bolt with a shorter one.
I bought these to replace my 15" progressives and get back to stock size on my bike, and I'm very pleased with them. It has a nice smooth ride and can handle bumps well. I've turned them all the way down. br>They fit perfectly on my 2005 883 Harley-Davidson Sportster XL. It only took the ship 20 minutes to put on its sails. The only consideration is that some bikes may require longer bolts, which can easily be obtained from a hardware store.
So far, it's been pretty good value for money. I've had both the Burlys and the Burlys, and I honestly can't tell the difference. They're a little shorter than stock, so your bike will ride a little rougher, but no one buys a sportster for the smooth ride.
On my 2013 fat bob, these shocks are a perfect replacement for the stock shocks. I had to turn it up a few notches to keep it from bottoming out because the default setting was too low. If you're a bigger fella or lady, you'll probably want to go with a longer shock.
It's a good ride at a reasonable price, and it's simple to put together. (They're shock absorbers) Did I mention they're simple to set up? Good price and product; I would buy it again and will most likely do so.
Fits perfectly on my 2004 883 and looks fantastic.
Bonus: Even a spanner wrench was included. Even though there was no need to adjust, it was a nice bonus. The price was unbeatable!.
