Yeah, that's what Tim at WP said as well. I mean, they look nice painted and all, but I'm kind of an OEM fanatic.

a few!
Just wondering if this pertains to all models. They may be referring to the air-ride or another model like the Bulldog that may have had adjustable shocks.
im not sure ?.. what pic shows is what i have... when i first got bike (4000 Miles on it) i could hardley ride it off the dealer lot it was so low. dragged comin out parking lot. i got it back to place we were staying at and adjusted ride height at least 2 inches higher... i assumed then as i do now that it came this way...
Sounds like the previous owner put different shocks on it to lower it.

Tanks Ray! I'll take a look tonight.:up:Interesting. I'll run down now and take a pic of them so you know what you are looking at. The shocks are wrinkle finished from the factory!
:2thumbs:
Here they are taken by looking up under the rear fender up behind the battery box (your oil tank on your bike).
just to be clear w everyone- the adjustment i have is on shock length.... DOES NOT offer stiffer or softer settings . the rear mount of shock has a jam nut.. the nut can be loosened and the rear ward mount is threaded to make shock shorter or longer..
Yes, thats the way they all are for the softails. :2thumbs:
here is pic i robbed from gasmans post. same as what i have
