HD FLRT Upgrade Retrofit Shocks vs Pro-Action/DK Shocks

[Free Bird]

Premium Ride Hand-Adjustable Shocks - Part Number 54000166 vs Pro-Action / DK Custom 14" Harley Trike Series Shocks





The MoCo has a retrofit kit that affords 2017 & 2018 Freewheeler riders an ability to upgrade to the new 2019 shock system. DK Customs has a great analysis of several shocks available in the market, and the DK/Pro-Action 14" Trike units scored best.

I am looking at the Pro-Action Shocks from DK or the HD Upgrade kit for my science project FLRT. Cost is comparable between the unit (~$25 difference). So I am looking for guidance.

Has anyone driven a 2017 or 2018 Freewheeler with the DK/Pro-Action 14" Shocks and a 2019 with the new rear shocks for comparison?

Kevin, have you and the DK Team done any comparative analysis on the new HD Shocks yet? (I always appreciate your approach to performance testing products)

As always, all input is welcomeorag:

One thing the DK ro-Action shocks have over the H-D is a limited lifetime warranty. You'll probably get only 1 year from H-D on their shocks.

The only thing adjustable on the HD shocks is preload. With what you are building I would think full adjustablility is probably required.
