**Remote-Adjustable Touring Suspension — Built Around Your Rider Profile**

## Maximum Control for Riders Who Want More Adjustability

Super Shox Platinum RR1 rear shocks take the comfort and control of the Premium Series and add a wider range of external suspension adjustment.

RR1 is built for Street Glide riders who want to adjust how their rear suspension responds as the road, motorcycle load, and riding pace change.

RR1 is an excellent choice for:

- Long-distance touring
- Two-up riding
- Tour Pack and loaded-luggage setups
- Rough pavement and changing road conditions
- Aggressive cornering and mountain roads
- Riders who want more control over suspension feel

Every set is configured around your rider weight, passenger use, typical luggage load, motorcycle setup, and riding style.

## Dual 8-Position Compression Adjustment

RR1 features **dual 8-position compression adjusters**, giving you a broader tuning range than the SR1 or SR2 series.

Choose a softer setting when you want a more relaxed, comfortable ride or increase compression control when riding loaded, carrying a passenger, encountering rough pavement, or pushing harder through corners.

This lets you refine the suspension for:

- Solo riding
- Two-up touring
- Added luggage or a Tour Pack
- Smooth highways
- Rough backroads
- Faster, more aggressive riding

You are not rebuilding or revalving the shocks whenever your riding conditions change. RR1’s external adjustment lets you refine the suspension as needed.

---

## Convenient Remote Adjustment

The RR1 remote adjusters are positioned near the passenger footpeg area, making suspension adjustments convenient and accessible.

This is RR1’s defining advantage: meaningful compression-damping adjustments can be made without removing the saddlebags or reaching into a difficult area around the shock.

---

## What RR1 Improves

RR1 is designed to keep the rear suspension controlled without making the motorcycle unnecessarily harsh.

Riders can expect:

- Better control over large bumps and hard impacts
- Reduced wallowing through long sweepers
- More stability with a passenger or luggage
- Improved rear-tire contact over uneven pavement
- Less uncontrolled suspension movement
- A smoother, more composed long-distance ride
- Greater control over how firm or compliant the suspension feels

The result is a Street Glide that feels planted, predictable, and easier to trust when the pace or load increases.

## LT vs SL — Choose the Right Configuration

RR1 is available in LT and SL configurations. The correct option depends on your motorcycle’s original shock length, desired stance, and suspension goals.

### LT — Long Travel

LT is the performance-focused choice for riders who prioritize maximum usable suspension travel, comfort, and control.

The 14-inch LT configuration provides approximately **3.5 inches of suspension travel** and works with the Super Shox relocation mounting system.

LT is especially well suited for:

- Long-distance riding
- Two-up touring
- Loaded saddlebags and Tour Pack setups
- Rough roads
- Riders who want maximum suspension performance

On motorcycles originally equipped with 13-inch shocks, LT generally settles approximately one-half inch lower because of its properly configured sag. On motorcycles equipped with 12-inch factory shocks, LT generally maintains approximately the original ride height while providing additional usable travel.

### SL — Lower Ride Stance

SL is designed for riders who want a lower rear stance while retaining premium ride quality and external compression adjustment.

The 13.5-inch SL configuration provides approximately **3 inches of suspension travel** when used with the relocation mounting system.

The exact change in ride height depends on your motorcycle’s original shock length. Every order is reviewed before production to help ensure the selected configuration matches your Street Glide and intended stance.

---

## Rider-Specific Suspension Setup

Super Shox does not rely on a basic standard-versus-heavy spring selection.

Your RR1 shocks are configured using your actual riding information:

- Rider weight
- Passenger weight
- How frequently you ride two-up
- Tour Pack or luggage use
- Typical riding load
- Motorcycle model and year
- Riding style

This provides the correct starting point before the shocks ever reach your motorcycle.

---

## Easy Preload Adjustment

In addition to external compression adjustment, RR1 includes easy-to-adjust graduated spring preload.

Preload can be changed when your motorcycle load changes, allowing you to compensate for a passenger, luggage, or different touring setups.

A setup guide is included so you have a dependable baseline instead of guessing where to begin.

---

## Spherical Bearing Mounts

Super Shox uses spherical bearing mounts that allow the suspension to move naturally as the motorcycle leans and the chassis moves.

Compared with traditional rubber-bushing mounts, this design helps reduce binding while supporting smoother suspension movement, consistent traction, and a more connected feel through corners.

---

## Built and Tested in the USA

Every Super Shox RR1 set is:

- Made in the USA
- Hand-assembled
- Dyno tested
- Configured for its intended rider and application
- Inspected before leaving production

This is not a generic imported shock selected from a limited weight chart. RR1 is assembled and tested around the motorcycle and rider information supplied with the order.

---

## Performance-Focused Construction

Super Shox combines its rider-specific setup with performance-focused components and engineering, including:

- Deflective-disc valving
- Separated gas chamber
- High-strength, low-friction shock shaft
- Consistent damping performance
- Anodized components
- Graduated preload adjustment
- Application-specific spring and damping configurations

The system is designed to resist cavitation and maintain consistent suspension control across changing road conditions.

---

Installation

RR1 is designed as a bolt-on rear-suspension upgrade for compatible Harley-Davidson Touring models.

Depending on the selected configuration, the system may include Super Shox relocation mounts engineered to provide the required shock angle, saddlebag clearance, and suspension travel.

Professional installation is recommended to ensure:

- Correct mount orientation
- Proper fastener torque
- Adequate exhaust and saddlebag clearance
- Correct preload baseline
- Full suspension movement without interference

Always verify tire, fender, exhaust, saddlebag, and hardware clearance throughout the suspension’s complete range of movement.

---

## Built to Order

Super Shox RR1 shocks are built for your motorcycle and rider profile rather than pulled from generic shelf inventory.

**Typical shipping time: 3–12 business days**

Build times may increase during peak riding season. This production period allows your shocks to be assembled, configured, tested, and checked before shipment.

---

## Every Order Is Reviewed Before Production

Dreaded Iron Moto reviews every Super Shox order before it is submitted for production.

If your model, year, load information, or selected configuration does not appear to match, we contact you before the shocks are built.

You are not ordering an expensive suspension system blind.
