Super Shox
These are real Super Shox SR1 owner testimonials.
Installed these right before a 5,000-mile trip and they performed exceptionally well the entire way. The bike felt more planted, more controlled, and far more comfortable over long days in the saddle. Couldn’t be more pleased with how they handled real touring miles — I’d recommend them to any rider looking for a serious upgrade over stock suspension.
Spent a lot of time researching suspension options and went with Super Shox. Hands down a completely different ride compared to factory shocks — smoother, more controlled, and more confidence on the road. After putting real miles on them, I’m glad I made the switch and would choose them again without hesitation.
Purchased a set of Super Shox for my 2022 Road Glide Limited before a trip to Sturgis and the ride was noticeably better than the factory shocks. The improvement was enough that I ordered another set for my 2020 Road Glide Limited as well. Solid comfort, better control, and a real difference over OEM.

Super Shox SR1 Premier Series Rear Shocks
Harley-Davidson Road Glide (2002–Present)
Super Shox SR1 rear shocks are hand-built in the USA and configured to a rider-specific baseline based on rider weight and typical load — so your suspension shows up built around how you actually ride, not a generic factory rider.
Dreaded Iron Moto is an authorized U.S. Super Shox retailer, offering the same pricing as buying direct from the manufacturer, with added rider guidance and support.
SR1 is designed for riders who want a major upgrade over stock with a focus on:
smooth comfort on rough roads
stability and predictability at speed
reduced fatigue on long days
simple setup you don’t have to overthink
If you’ve never upgraded suspension before, SR1 is the model most riders should start with — because it delivers the biggest real-world improvement with the simplest ownership experience.
SR1 is a direct bolt-on replacement for compatible Harley-Davidson models.
No relocation brackets required
No cutting or permanent modifications
Straightforward installation
Professional installation is recommended to ensure correct setup and best performance.
SR1 improves the parts of touring that people don’t realize are optional until they ride better suspension:
expansion joints and small bumps stop beating you up
less fatigue (especially upper back + tailbone)
the rear end stays composed instead of bouncing or kicking
smoother feel on imperfect pavement
more confidence in corners and highway sweepers
A lot of riders don’t realize how much stock suspension is holding the bike back until they experience a properly set up shock.
Super Shox uses a spherical bearing mount, allowing the shock to twist naturally as you lean the bike. That improves shock movement and traction under real riding conditions — a noticeable upgrade over stock rubber-bushing style mounts.
SR1 includes tool-free preload adjustment, making it easy to dial for:
solo riding
solo + gear
occasional passenger use
Every set includes a setup chart so you can start in the correct baseline without guessing.
Daily riding and commuting
Weekend and long-distance touring
Riders upgrading suspension for the first time
Solo or lightly loaded setups
Riders who want comfort + stability without complicated tuning
Super Shox shock lengths are listed based on real-world installed ride height once properly set up, not raw eye-to-eye measurements.
Because each set is built to rider weight and load, uninstalled shocks may measure slightly longer. Once installed and adjusted to the recommended baseline, the bike settles into its intended ride height with proper sag and suspension travel.
Compatible with Harley-Davidson models from 2002–Present, as listed for this product.
Super Shox are built-to-order, not pulled from shelf stock. Each set is assembled and configured specifically for the rider, which typically results in a ~3 week build time before shipping.
This isn’t a delay — it’s the process that ensures your suspension arrives correctly built, not generic or rushed.
Every SR1 set is configured before shipping so you’re not chasing settings — you’re refining a setup built around how you actually ride.
All Super Shox include a 30-day money-back guarantee, giving you confidence in your purchase.
Fits Harley-Davidson Road Glide models including:
Road Glide (FLTR) — 2002–Present
Road Glide Special — 2009–Present
Road Glide Limited — ~2016–Present
CVO Road Glide — ~2006–Present
(Exact shock length options available in the dropdown.)
How long does it take to receive my shocks?
Super Shox are built-to-order. Most orders ship in approximately 3 weeks, depending on production volume. Each set is assembled and configured specifically for the rider, rather than pulled from shelf stock.
How are my shocks set up when they arrive?
Every set is configured to a recommended baseline based on rider weight and load before shipping. That means you’re starting in the right range from the first ride, with simple adjustments available if you want to fine-tune.
Do I need special tools or tuning knowledge?
No. Super Shox feature tool-free preload adjustment, making it easy to adjust for changes like luggage, a passenger, or different riding conditions — without specialized tools or suspension experience.
Will these change my ride height?
Super Shox shock lengths are listed by real-world ride height once installed and properly set up. Uninstalled shocks may measure slightly longer, but once installed and set to the recommended baseline, the bike settles into its intended ride height with proper sag and suspension travel.
Are these good for daily riding and commuting?
Yes. SR1 performs across daily riding, weekend trips, and long-distance touring — while keeping setup simple and rider-friendly.
What if I’m not sure which model is right for me?
Choosing the right model depends on how you ride and how your bike is typically loaded. If you have questions about fitment, ride height, or whether SR1, SR2, or RR1 is the best choice, reach out — we’re happy to help you get it right.
