Progressive Suspension's 422 Series Shocks with Remote Adjustable Preload

The Softail chassis has long been a challenge for suspension guys. The shocks are hidden under the frame, which makes common adjustments difficult. Not anymore.

The engineering team over at Progressive have come up with a clever solution. They call it RAP (or Remote Adjustable Preload) and it combines their high performance shocks with a remote preload adjuster.

Conveniently located behind the left passenger peg, the Progressive RAP system allows for easy tuning of the shocks to account for changing loads or the addition of a passenger. 

Packing a lot of gear for a big ride? Give the knob a few turns and the bike is set. Riding solo? A few rotations the other direction softens things up.



The 422 RAP Series shocks are based on Progressive Suspensions proven gas charged monotube damper and are combined with heavy-duty progressive rate springs for excellent ride quality and bottoming control.

Threaded rod ends also provide several inches of height adjustment.
