Good To Know

Q: Are these sold as a pair? A: Yes, both left and right rear shocks are included so the rear suspension stays balanced. Replacing only one side is not recommended.

Q: Will these fit a Sportster model other than the 1200 Custom? A: Fitment is stated for the XL1200C 2004 through 2012 range in the title. Check your exact model and shock length before ordering, as other Sportster variants can use a different length.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
