IAS Inside. Inertia Active Suspension is a patented technology. These NEXGEN™ dynamically adjust rebound damping, resulting in improved riding comfort & control.
This is acheived via a motion sensing valve in the shock body that dynamically adjusts the rebound damping to be ideal for both dips and bumps.
Custom Tuned to Your Trike & Your Riding Style/Loads
Conceived, Designed, Tested & Built by DK Custom Products, these 14" NEXGEN™ Trike Series Shocks™ provide a Superior Ride Quality for Harley-Davidson Trikes with the MOST Travel possible at 4".
DK Custom Products has been at the forefront of developing suspension solutions for Harley Trikes. We were the first to come up with the idea of a 14" shock for the additional travel.
MORE About The Patented IAS Technology: Normally shocks have 1 circuit for for compression & rebound damping. Within this damping circuit are "shim stacks" that provide pressure sensitive adjustment to the damping. Because it is one circuit for both, it is always a compromise.
These shocks have TWO Completely different circuits (valving) for auto-adjusting rebound damping.
By having one pressure sensitive circuit for bumps in the road, and Another damping circuit for dips in the road, the damping works exceptionally well. Each damping circuit is set up to optimally, and automatically adjust the damping to the road surfaces, acceleration, braking, load (weight) on the Trike.
- With More Travel, afforded by the 14" Shocks, the ability to eat up small and large irregularities, turning the harshest jolt into a smooth dip is a joy to ride.
- These Trike Series Shocks™ are 14 inches tall. Designed to work with the DK Custom 14" Convertible Comfort™ Mount brackets, they not only give you the most suspension travel available for an HD Trike, they also level out your 13 and earlier Trike.
- When you order you will be asked some easy questions. Your answers give us the information needed to use the correct spring rate for your shocks, as well as giving us the info needed to adjust the shocks for you. This way when you receive the shocks they are already set-up for you. Simply bolt them on and ride!
See Parts 2 & 3 in the 'Technical Info' Tab Above
Fitment:
Fits all 2009-Up Harley-Davidson Trikes (Tri Glide, Freewheeler, FLHXXX)
These shocks fit with OEM bike parts. If you have aftermarket parts such as some oversized exhaust, lowering blocks, aftermarket saddle bags, etc it may limit the length shocks that you can run on your bike.
Attention 2019 - 2023 HD Trikes:
Because the OEM shocks have no sag in them, when switching to a quality shock, like the NexGen 14" w/ a Comfort Mount, they will sit at the same, or a bit higher than OEM when no one is sitting on them.
However, once the rider, passenger & luggage are on the Trike, they will sit a little lower than OEM.
This is because the 2019+ OEM shocks are too stiff.
To see a full understanding of How & Why this works, see this video.
Note: Even though the 2009-2016 Trikes will run this Trike Series Shock™ without the 14" Convertible Comfort Mount™, they will sit more level and ride smoother with a 14" Convertible Comfort Mount™.

Limited Life Time Warranty Details:
For the original purchaser of the shocks
Does not cover accidents, fire, environmental catastrophes (submerged in a flood, etc.)

If they are installed properly, not overloaded, not damaged by some external force, then they are Lifetime shocks for the original purchaser....if they wear out, they will be rebuilt/replaced at no charge.
"Had the Nex Gen 14” shocks and comfort lift installed. Holy hell what a difference. Spots on my route home that can make my back pop weren’t even felt. It’s like a Cadillac now." -Brian
"These Trike Series Shocks do an amazing job at leveling out the irregularities in the road. As we get older, having a smoother ride is more & more important. The stiff, straight axle OEM ride is long gone." - James

We've been riding the 2020 TriGlide for about a year now with the stock Harley shocks, after the last 1400 mile the wife said by the DK Custom shocks:)
I can only parrot what the previous reviews had to say. A great product, if you have not changed out the factory shocks.......you're in for a surprise , find someone who has and get a ride :) (Posted on 8/27/2023) -

I bought a 2023 HD Triglide. I've been riding Harley Davidson for 55 years. I traded in my 2018 Ultra Limited, for my trike. I was blind sided by how bad the trike rode and handled. I spent 3 weeks tweaking the OEM coil over rear suspension system. I got it as good as I could. But it was still awful. I hated to ride it! So after many hours of Youtube videos, research on line. I decided on DK Custom Suspension, front and rear. End result, I absolutely love my Glide now. It actually Glides over the roads. The best money I've ever spent. I went from total dissatisfaction and despair. To elation. I have now put over 3,500 miles on the Glide with the new suspension. I'm still amazed everytime I ride it. Kudos to DK Customs, you really knocked it out of the park. (Posted on 8/17/2023) -

NEXGEN 14” shock and comfort lift on my 2019 Tri Glide Ultra. Order took about a week to arrive and I only spent about 3 hours in my garage to install both. The ride improvement was incredible. Wife greatly appreciated the difference and I did as well. Smoothed out most of the bumps we usually encounter and seems like the handling is a bit better also. Highly recommend these for your trike. Now I just need to fix the front shocks. (Posted on 8/16/2023) -

Nextgen 14” shocks and comfort lift on 2021 Tri Glide. Massive improvement in ride quality and handling. Hitting gaps in bridges is no only felt at the front (standard forks), the rear is excellent.
Steering feels lighter.
Passenger noticed a big improvement, no need to grab the handles now.
DeWayne is very helpful, answering questions promptly and giving good advice. A pleasure to deal with.
You will not regret buying these.
Now to get the front sorted. (Posted on 8/8/2023) -

Installed my combo kit today 14” Nexgen and convertible comfort mount.
Install was easy took my time since I was in no hurry. Adjusted the tire pressure to 21 and took it for a ride.
Totally different ride handle and feel. Big difference from stock. Will do a complete review after my fall trip from Va. to Maine. That trip should be a good time to see how it really will feel. (Posted on 7/12/2023) -

Had Pro Action shocks on last trike bought a 2023 after 1,500 miles installed the nextgen shocks and comfort kit. So much better love the ride now. I video many of the rides with our group with stock shocks could not use much of the footage because of vibration of the camera. Now it is smooth no vibrating camera. (Posted on 7/10/2023) -

I have had my 2023 TriGlide for 7 months now and have almost 5k miles. I finally decided to install the comfort lift and 14" NexGen rear shock kit. Did the work myself. Not terribly hard. Removing the stock ones took the longest. Wow, what a difference in ride quality. I also put 12" Ape hangers bars on. All around completely different feel for the better . (Posted on 5/17/2023) -

Order and receive the Nexgen Shocks & comfort lift in around a week. Video & written instructions combined were easy to follow. I have ridden over 500 mi. and have found the ride to be much more planted to the road. With the air shocks it would either bottom out or be to stiff. These absorb bumps and gaps much better than factory. Highly recommend, you won't be disappointed. (Posted on 4/20/2023) -

I have a 2017 Triglide that came with the worst rear (and front) suspension known to man. Every time my wife and I would ride she would need an adjustment at the chiropractor due to being nearly bounced off the seat on not that severe bumps at moderate speeds.
I purchased a set of 14" Nexgen rear shocks, lift kit and Progressive front shocks and the trike is completely transformed to a super comfortable ride. After her first ride she came right out and said it's like a whole different bike; as comfortable as my Road Glide Ultra with Legend Air Suspension.
If you are debating whether these shocks will make a difference or are worth the money (as I did), or whether you should pick this product as opposed to other brands, then debate no further. This suspension system is an excellent value and will vastly improve the ride of your HD trike.
One further thing the customer service and technical help by DK Customs is as good as it gets. They helped from purchase all the way through install. You won't be disappointed if you buy from them. (Posted on 2/6/2023) -

Well did it myself took about three houurs.
Watched the vidio many times and refered to the instruction. Went together just like they everything lined up. Now the ride first test in neiborhood felt like it steered easier coundnt tell how the ride was. than parked and waite for all the snow and storms to quit. Than I went for a real ride slow and fast over different roads. The ride comfort was unbealeavable very smooth all the jarring was gone perfect. The steering was very quick and easy at all speeds. All around huge improvement. worth the money. Bike is a 2021 Tri Glide Ultra. Thankyou DK customs. (Posted on 1/27/2023) -

About 6 months ago I purchased and installed the nexgen 14" combo package on a trike. I could feel a big difference in the ride as soon as I installed the pkg. I have now put 4000 miles on the suspension including a 1400 mile round trip to the Rocky Point Rally in Puerto Penasco Mexico. Absolutely love the suspension. I highly recommend the nex gen pkg to anyone riding a trike. The ride and handling are so much better than factory. DK Customs support is excellent as well. (Posted on 12/19/2022) -

I installed the Nexgen combo kit on my 2020 TriGlide install time was 2 hours taking my time.
My bike now is a joy to ride before the new shocks 2 hours was all my back could take now a day run 6~8 hours on the trike is not a problem .. This was by far the BEST upgrade i have done to my TriGlide. Kevin and his crew nailed it on this mod! (Posted on 11/20/2022) -

After attending DK's Open House in September and discussing Trike suspension mods with Kevin I bought the Nexgen kit for my Tri Glide Ultra. Delivery was prompt and complete. It took me about 5 hours total for the removal of the stock shocks/mounting brackets and the installation of the Nexgen's/comfort lifts. First ride was awesome - a completely different riding experience. The steering took less effort and the trike felt lighter or more nimble. The ride felt like the peaks had been shaved down and the valleys filled resulting in a pleasant and comfortable ride. Worth the money and effort in my opinion. (Posted on 9/25/2022) -

So I got my wife a 2018 Tri glide. The stock shocks are less then good! I did a ton of research on shocks. DK by far wins every category. Big difference in ride. (Posted on 8/25/2022) -

First of all wasn't expecting such quick delivery I ordered them on Sunday and they were on my front porch when I got home Wednesday so 5 star's to DK shipping. Install time 3 hours hardest part was left side dealing with the parking brake cables even after you get the bracket off but that's on Harley. shock's great improvement over stock I was a little surprised with the stock shocks having a oil line connected to them. we went for first ride and what a different ride on a scale of 1 to 10 stock being 0 I put DK shock's 8 I don't believe anything can get a Harley trike to 10 I'm very happy with ride quality now this is our 3rd trike it's a 21 we bought new last September the other 2 trikes had air shocks so I expected better on the 21 since it had coilover but it was just as bad as previous trikes .So hats off to DK for quality and delivery. Really hoping to make the trip from Leavenworth to your open house on the 3rd (Posted on 8/18/2022) -

Installation was pretty straight forward if you have any mechanical experience. Worked on it over a few nights after work for total of maybe 3 1/2 or 4 hours. Wife loves the difference these shocks make, smooths out all bumps and dips. Even some of the roughest ones I could find were not bad. I find that our 2017 Triglide steers much better and goes through curves smoother at speeds I wouldn't have tried previously. What a great product, Wish I had pulled trigger on these sooner. Cost seems high until you actually feel the difference, well worth the price. I have my eye on a few other items and cant wait to order them. (Posted on 8/2/2022) -

Just do it! My wife said she was done riding with me due to the jarring etc. I have had two back surgeries resulting the purchase of a 2019 Tri Glide.I was growing less and less insterested in abusing my body any furtheralso. I didn't think any shocks would make a significant difference. I have put them on 2 wheelers and never felt enough of an improvement to be overly excited about them.. So we test drove a Cam Am Spyder. The ride was great but eveything else about it was not me. However to save our riding relationship I put a deposit on one to be delivered late summer. We had a trip planned a couple weeks ago to the Blue Ridge area of NC & Va. Just before we left I took an expensive gamble and ordered the Nexgen shock package figuring it would at least improve my vacation experience. Instead of improving the experience, they saved me from the Spyder! My wife & I were imediately amazed at the improvement in ride. After 450 miles of switch backs and rough roads we were in agreement to keep the trike! If you are on the fence about the big investment vs the results, all I can say is just do it!

Before I installed these was like riding in a wagon, solved that problem no more jolting. It's nice and smooth when I hit a bump now. Only thing is now I can feel the problems with front end now so will have to beg it up. Wish harley would have done this in first place especially on a cvo. (Posted on 5/31/2022) -

Ruptured a disc in my lower back last year. so back is very tender can't take too much pounding. Purchased a new 2021 Triglide Ultra. Ride was hard enough it still jarred my back. installed Nexgen 14" combo package. Unbelievable difference. The trike is very smooth handles much better. stopped all the rocking and bouncing from the rear end. Corners much better feeels more stable i highly recommend this package to all trike owners. Ready for all day riding again Kudos to DK customs (Posted on 5/23/2022) -

Got my trike back today. Had a serious 40k service and inspection done ahead of a planned week long road trip. Had the Nex Gen 14” shocks and comfort lift installed during this as well. Holy hell what a difference. Spots on my route home that can make my back pop weren’t even felt. It’s like a Cadillac now, dolphin smooth, and will only get better once my fronts come in next month. I’m looking forward to the road trip even more now and so is my wife. She will go to sleep for sure now. Lol. Thanks to all the people at DK Customs. (Posted on 5/10/2022) -

Just put these on a few days ago and I am impressed with how much they have smoothed out the annoying sharp bumps on the ride to work this morning. The smaller bumps are all but gone and the sharper ones were just a minor annoyance. Going through curve there is less lean. Overall a great improvement I wish I had done a lot sooner!!!

I ride 2 up most of the time and we would tend to bottom out with factory air shocks, these shocks provide and smoother ride and no bottom out yet.
I have only made a shoe ride yet because of Minnesota cold, our roads are really in bad shape now and the TG rides pretty darn good. I had previously installed a lift witch was great for handling so this did not change the handling .
Only regret is not buying sooner (Posted on 3/14/2022)
