Harley-Davidson Handling Improvements/Upgrades: The Magic of Legend Suspensions

Harley-Davidson Handling Improvements/Upgrades: The Magic of Legend Suspensions
After over 30 years of riding Harley-Davidsons and our team traveling hundreds of thousands of miles on a wide variety of Harley motorcycles it’s safe to say we have a good feel for the road, and we thought it would be helpful to drop this post around suspension upgrades to improve handling.

First and foremost, when it comes to Harleys and their suspension systems, you have to keep in mind that their motorcycles are always quality when they roll off the showroom floor though somewhat generalized and not focused around your particular riding style. For example, a 2024 bagger is a totally different experience compared to ripping an old school FXR.

Secondly, no matter what bike you have there are always ways to customize it to fit you, especially when it comes to your suspension setup to improve handling ranging from a variety of aftermarket Harley suspension systems to other solutions, and we’re here to help you on that journey.

Below are some of the common questions we get around this topic:

Which Harley-Davidson suspension system is the best?
