That deez sparked my intrest in--- the  gl1500a, or s.e.  a.k.a. 1500 goldwings...Is a great idea....I bought the LH coil shock, pictured below.... Got lucky on ebay , must have been a warehouse ebay store, or something, i. e.--- the places that sell your stuff on ebay for you, for a commision,  bought it for $ 5.99 I think it was, $16.00 shipped. The RH shock is the air side/ dampner/shock. When I find a RH side , and my progressive 412s (curently installed) bushings wear out again, I will install the goldwing shocks....The progressive bushings, even the newer poly ones dont seem to last much over a year or two. The goldwing air shocks will accept the stock valk bushings according to deez. Then you can have an air adjustable system (you dont need an onboard compressor to adjust the air pressure)  with the forever bushings from xf6. --clear as mud now--?

Fitting the GL1500A or SE Goldwing air shocks on the Valkyrie.  cooldude

A economically frugal (cheap) and safe alternitave, due to the mass trike coversions on this model (goldwing1500) motorbike, make the aft suspension parts (shocks) readily available.

Motorcycling is not, of itself, inherently dangerous.
It is however, extremely unforgiving of: inattention, ignorance, incompetence or stupidity.
