I have a 2012 ultra classic limited, I am 5'7" and would like to lower the bike, are these shocks lower than the stock ones?

Stock shocks on an ultra are 13" on the bike, the 944's standard are 13" but once installed on the bike, they sag to 12", if u get these shocks your bike will sit 1" but still have the travel of a 13" shock, hope this helps

Hi keith, they are 3". And like i said in my reveiw these shock don't keep my truck from sagging down when hauling my 900lb motorcycle. I had to add a leaf to the leaf springs along with these shocks. So if i had it to do over i would add a leaf first. George

Not just for stock, they have enough travel for what seems to be about 3 inches safely, i put these shocks in with a "Leveling Kit" that raised the back 2 inches and the front about 3-3.5 Inches.

Those shocks are for the rear, if your truck is lowered they may be too compressed. If the truck is not lower turn the knob to a higher number you may be on its lowest setting with very little resistance, the shocks I installed work like a dream, but I have a 4x4 so it is higher off the ground stock

It's my belief that they will work for you. I don't believe there's any difference when it comes to shocks. Why not call your parts guy at local H-D dealership just to be sure? I love these shocks on my 08 Street Glide!

No idea. They are a shorter than stock shock for my 2500hd that's lowered a little. Reason why I bought them. I can't give you a accurate answer on if they will fit. Sorry

i installed the monoshock kit on a 2005 flhtcip,it lowered it about 1 inch.i also installed 11 1/2inch progressive 412 rear standard duty shocks,together they work great.

I would think they would fit, as far as I know the frames should be the same. The easiest way to cross check would be to see if the original shocks are the same. If they are the same then it should fit. I am a 25lb plus man and ordered the heavier version, they are a bit stiff, but the improvement was awesome. I have not had my wife on the back since putting them on, but I would expect them to be great with the two of us ( she's a light weigh,t 120lb) Bruce

I am unsure if they will fit, I have a 2012 Dyna superglide low and they don't exactly fit I'm going to have to file a little bit of metal on the inside so they will close properly but I think with a little tlc they would work. Hope this helps

I would have to say no. These are air shocks that rise when you put air in them, not lower. You want air bags and even then you are going to have to completely modify the spring perches and shock mounts. Don't know exactly how you are going to do that, but lower? Don't think these are what you are looking for...

I believe so. fyi: I found even set for full height they lowered my bike approx 1/4 inch.

these shocks will lower the dresser bike about an inch, however due to being shorter, they also reduce the travel of the rear wheel. This means since the dresser is heaver than the street glide you may bottom out more often. You will certainly notice the stiffer ride. It would be recommended to lower the front at the same time as not to change the bikes handling characteristics since the front would be higher than the rear if you only changed out the rear shock.

John,All I can tell you is that I have a 92 Ultra and they did not lower mine. The ride is just a little tighter than the stock air shocks, but running into the curves and over beautiful Micigan Roads ( total sarcasm). They handle and ride GREAT!!

As far as I know yes. they appear to be an exact copy of harley lowers. I bought an 10 ultra classic in September and it has hog tune speakers in the lowers and I can't tell the difference between the after market lowers I put on my 09 classic & the original lowers on the 10 ultra.

Thease items did not work on my 2005 low rider. I could not adjust them at all to my comfort

not sure they would fit, but I am very disappointed with mine...over 12k on mine and they have never been very smooth on the ride, but they did help handling. I would look at the Harley premium shocks--or spend the extra bucks and buy some real quality shocks from howard at motorcycle metal. check out his reviews from other riders at hdforums.com

Well if they fit they nice. Had them on 2012 Softail Deluxe. Traded in my Deluxe for a 2014 Ultra Limited.
