thinking of fitting 422's to my Springer.
Anyone fitted them to their softail?
What were you thoughts of the 422's?
No two up riding and mainly for pushing through the hills etc.
Can get them from the States for about $600, delivered.
Not really prepared to spend $$$$ on the various air ride shocks.
ralph , i would not recoment them at all i've had about three sets, even had one progressive shock fall apart, they seem better right at start but they progressively go south!
there are some good shocks out there , if you can find someone that can custom order you Race Tech shocks they are great! i had a set & they are still on the bike ( sold it to a mate ) fornals great too.
Springer front ends great! they don't dive they are like a leading link work good especiall the newer genuine Harley ones!!!
Last I heard the Fournales were about $1750 for a set of rears for a softail ( From the Frenchman in Tasmania, who is supposed to be the Aussie distributor). A mate of mine bought a set and was a bit miffed he did not get the syringe type pump with them to adjust the pressure.
You can get em cheaper from the US but aparently you will have to send em back to the states if they fuck up under warranty. Thats what the Frenchman will tell you I believe.
Got the gas cartridge ones(progressive) in the front of mine and am happy with em, also looking to upgrade the back. Be interested to see how you go.
Cheers
I,m with Norm , talk to Walter at YSS Angle Vale . He has plenty to choose from .
Find ph number and ring direct Ralphski . Walter is really good to deal with . Factory has been set up in Thailand by Walter himself .
or do what I did and go for a ride there. Best thing is he'll set the bike up and if your not happy he is local enouh to tweek it.
Just ordered Shotgun's from JD & Jess in the States.
fck the $$$$
