I got these high road clearance rear shocks at Oley in april.  I had new covers on my low road clearance shocks that were on the bike so I swapped covers on them yesterday and installed them on the bike today.one thing that got my attention is the low shocks had only 1 spacer washer in them the f.s.m.says 3 are standard.the high shocks had 4.
