I just installed my RWD1’s on my performance bagger 2020 RGS . I had the Legend Revo 12” prior and liked the performance aspect but the comfort level I was looking for wasn’t really available. Now I have comfort and performance. Glad I went this route.

@RAIDERWORLD 2 жыл бұрын

Congrats on the new shocks! and Thank You for Watching 👍🏽 These are definitely a game changer for me personally. I had the legend Revo A’s before. Great shocks, but you immediately notice the comfort with the RS-1’s without even dialing them in.

My question is this I'm heading to Sturgis this year with a king tour pack with luggage rack etc. How do I make the adjustment for the extra weight, is that done with the black know or turning the shock like you show in your video.

Russ Wernimont should be in stock soon on front suspension. They put into production the RWD RS-1F Touring front shocks, and should be in stock soon. But you could also complete this setup with Legends front shocks. Legends are also a great brand

Not that long, maybe a couple years. They specialize in off road racing, but just started making stuff for the Harley Market. I’ve ridden with legends, progressives, all good shocks. These shocks are definitely a game changer! I wanted to try something new, and I’m glad I did 👍🏽 With me and my O’lady, we’re about that same weight. I went with the standard. We did a road trip about 2 months ago with about 100 pounds more of weight, so almost 460 pounds and these worked flawlessly. Hope this helps!
