Hagon Shock Specs.

[Jim/Maine]

Leaning towards Hagons for my R3R and wondering if anyone has any words of wisdom on ordering, specking etc. Going to keep the stock 12.5 in. not sure what other options or considerations. Where have you bought them from? Thanks,

I went for 350mm ( approx 13.5") to get more clearance.. I rang Hagon direct ( phone No. off website) that way you can get them sent without British VAT tax.. pays for the postage & gets you a price probably similar to what the dealers get them in for.( ie trade price. Retailers over here would double it)

HI I had them on my honda vtx for 5 years, and when me and wife both put on weight i sent them back for upgrade and they were back within a week. great shocks and service.

Only one dealer in the USA. They'll want to know your weight and the normal load of your bike. If you ride 5% of the time with a pillion then they'll size it for you, the pillion and your luggage. They are a conservative bunch. Great shocks. Set your static sag for 15-20mm and then play with the damping until you're happy.
