Actually, the Goldwing doesn't have adjustable shocks. What it has is a load levelizer and in order to adjust it for the various weight loads it needs to be on the main stand. Viewing the display will let you know the weight level it is set at. If that doesn't work, you will need to check for a blown fuse.

Use this table as a starting point in determining suitable rear air suspension pressures. Do not exceed

maximum GVWR when loading vehicle and do not pressurize system in excess of 50 psi (345 kPa) for

FLHRS, FLHX models and 35 psi (241 kPa) for all others. Excessive load weight and/or air suspension

pressure can adversely affect handling and lead to loss of vehicle control, which could result in loss of life

The bike should have both wheels on the ground when you adjust the shocks. If you're adding weight to the bike, you can still adjust the shocks with the additional weight onboard but the adjuster will turn easier if the extra weight is not there.

Hi Patti, Road Kings have air shocks at the rear. You will need a FL touring hand pump and adjust the air pressure accordingly to your weight/load.

The front forks can be stiffened by changing to a heavier weight fork oil. I run 30 weight oil in mine. Make sure you use fork oil because it has a special anti-foaming agent in it.

On the rear shocks, they're adjustable. Just turn the adjuster to put more pre-load on the springs. This requires a special shock adjuster tool.

Good Luck

here is the table according to h-d a solo rider up 150 lbs. is 0 psi, 150-200 lbs is 0-10 psi, 200-250 is 5-15 psi,with passenger and rider up to 150 lbs is 10-15 psi,up to 200 lbs is20-25 psi, max weight is 20-35 psi good luck ride safely

Yes, it can be adjusted. It should have three adjustments on it... preload, rebound dampening and compression dampening. The preload is the overall stiffness of the shock and should be set to your normal riding weight ( If you normally carry 50 pounds of tools when riding then set the shock with that weight included). You adjust that by turning the notchy washer on the bottom of the big spring. Use the spanner wrench that came with your tool kit. The compression setting is on the end of the resevoir and the rebound is on the top of the shock. They are more delicate and should be set to your taste. Im sure your local dealer would help you adjust it to fit you and your style for minimal or no cost if you just showed up and asked.
