Terry Davis new shocks?
« on: May 01, 2011, 12:02:38 AM »

Talked to Terry at Laughlin, he had his new shocks there, anyone try them on the road yet?
Looks like pretty good quality, good price, and works pretty good "on the bench".
It will be pretty hard for me to ditch my Works Shocks on the '10, but, maybe on one of the other bikes I can replace the Progressives with a set of these??

I bought a set of 12" with 125lbs springs.  Installed on a 2012' Road Glide Skunk with a sidecar.  AMAZING Improvement.  Bought from him in Sturgis.  http://www.terrycable.com/Ultra-Low-Rear-Shocks_c_7.html

He started me with 150lbs springs and told me to ride them for a day and see if the were too stiff.  They were a bit stiff and he offered to change them out to 125 lbs. I couldn't be happier.  I put 2000 miles on them around Sturgis and on the way home.  They are worth every penny.  I have a Legend Air Ride on my 92' Softail with Sidecar and they are great...but I do not need adjustability on this bike and they are a vast improvement over the stock springs. 

Examples:  They don't "whoop" and bounce over wavy roads like the stock.  One "bounce" and they settle in.  The rig also doesn't "wiggle" in turns or "sag" during really aggressive riding/cornering.  Terry is great to deal with and really understands his product.  Even with very little experience with sidecars he used logic and his experience to make some great decisions on what would work.  I HIGHLY recommend these shocks.   

They are a great value, look good, and perform as advertised!

You type well for a blind man!  I hope you don't ride!  (Tired of people being DICKS!)  Save your next chitty comment for the next guy!  Better yet ADD something to the thread vs. just be a jerk!
