No rear suspension adjuster knob

[dloy1324]

Just bought 2022 TG and went to check suspension load setting. Removed seat and there is NO adjuster knob. Thoughts? Are these standard or optional components when ordering bike?
Thank you for your input.

It’s possible that the previous owner changed (upgraded) the shocks.

That is certainly possible. I’m quite the novice how can I check to see if an aftermarket shock has been installed? Thank you

There are several pairs of used, factory shocks on Ebay. Maybe you could compare the pics to your shocks.

Dirk, for sure the stock Harley shocks have been replaced, if you bought from a HD dealer perhaps they have the service records and could tell you. I doubt they would give you the name of the previous owner to contact but you can try.

Thanks Z. I'll call them tomorrow.

Take one of the wheels off and look to see if you can see a coil spring over the shock. If so , you might be happy, just needs to be adjusted to your weight. I hope I’m right for you.

NGU, thanks for the suggestion. I will check it out. Thanks

Here is a pic of OEM shocks that were on my `22 Tri Glide (replaced with 14" Nexgen).

Thank Dan. Now I know what to look for. Have a call into the dealership to see if they have record of any conversions.
