The stock shocks are not too hot. For me too stiff and bumpy ride. Got some cheap air shocks. Tad difficult to install without proper jack and the belt guard wears on the belt with new shocks so I took it off. Still have to figure out what to trim off belt guard to put it back on. Suggest hiring someone to do it for you as not as simple to do as some say. I don't think nitrogen worth it, just check em every few rides and top them to 75 psi(I weigh 185-190lbs) A hand held no wires usb charging air pump makes tires and shocks easy, well with about $45. Can set pump to desired pressure which is tricky otherwise since gas reservoir so small on gas shocks. Would not recommend getting Harley shocks for $400 they look like same height spring and doubt they improve ride much. Oh, and air shocks I tighten spring 9 threads. There is a guy in Midwest that rebuilds them to your weight spec for 100-150. Cheap air shocks about $75 pair try to get them from U. S. supplier read straight from China complete garbage.
