    Default Suspension Upgrade

    I went riding today and my stock Harley shocks were at ZERO. I just pumped them up the other day. I'm ready for my 40k service so I decided to spring for the Stage II suspension upgrade kit from DK Customs with the 14" NexGen rear shocks with lift. I average about 600 miles a week just going to work and back and then another couple of hundred more on the weekends after spring and usually average 12k-15k a year for all 12 months. I hope the ride will be much better than the last 20k since I bought the trike.
    2016 Tri Glide, More DK than HD. Just shut up and ride.

    I also ride 12-15K a year and now am pushing 75000 on my 2017 TG.

    I ran Stock air shocks DK's Lift Kit until last month and changed them over to the 14" Nextgen with Lift Kit.

    I have to say that it will be one of the best upgrades you can make to your TG.

    I wish I would have done it a lot sooner, although the Nextgen option just recently became available, but the 14" Pro Actions shocks have been around for most of the time I have had mine.

    I also put a Pro Action kit in my front shocks a couple years ago and that made a big difference on the front end.

    With both upgrades the bone Jarring bumps on the way have become a minor annoyance while the smaller bumps have all but disappeared.

    The Nextgen shocks are another Great Product from DK Customs!

    I have several of their products on my TG and they all have outperformed expectations.

    Thanks Bob. That's what I like to hear. I also have many of their products and plan to add a couple more. They are definitely top notch.

    The 14” Pro Action with comfort lift is really nice

    Great to hear folks are enjoying their rides more with the improved suspension.

    Brian, I believe you are going to be very pleased with the improved ride quality And improved handling (it will stay flatter thru the curves).

    NEXGEN™ Trike Series Shocks™ are just that...the Next Generation in Trike Shocks. With the dynamically adjusting valving, it takes rider and passenger comfort to the next level.

    We spent over a year developing these and are very happy with the end result. We hope you will be also.

    Got the rears in the end of last week and the trike is at the shop now getting them installed. I will be back on it this weekend and will update with the results.
