Burly Brand Stiletto Shocks — Black

The Burly Brand Stiletto Shocks are a set of rear suspension upgrades for cruisers and custom bikes that want a cleaner stance and better ride quality than stock shocks typically offer. Offered in 13.0″ and 13.5″ eye-to-eye lengths, these shocks let you fine-tune ride height and compliance without sacrificing the classic cruiser look.

Intended use and fitment

Stiletto shocks are ideal for riders who want to improve rear suspension performance — whether you’re lowering from stock or simply upgrading old, fatigued shocks. They fit a wide range of cruiser style motorcycles, and because they re available in two lengths, you have flexibility in how your bike sits.Typical uses:

Replacing worn out rear shocks
Achieving a slightly lower or more aggressive stance
Improving rear compliance on cruisers with street and highway miles
Smoothing out feel over rough pavement

Proper fitment requires matching the shock eye-to-eye length (13.0″ or 13.5″) to your motorcycle’s geometry. Always confirm compatibility with your specific year/model before purchase.

Best suited for

Cruiser and custom motorcycle riders looking for improved rear ride quality
Bikes that see a mix of city and highway riding
Riders who want a low-profile look without sacrificing compliance

These are not race shocks; they’re built for street use where comfort and style both matter.

Ride characteristics

Controlled rebound and compression for smoother pavement rides
Steadier feel through sweepers and uneven surfaces
Reduced pogo and harshness compared to worn or soft OE units
Slightly lower stance (depending on length chosen) without bottoming harshly
Confidence inspiring at both low and highway speeds

Stiletto shocks are tuned to give a more planted feel than tired stock shocks, while keeping cruiser geometry predictable and natural.

Available options

Stiletto Shocks — 13.0″ — Black
Stiletto Shocks — 13.5″ — Black

Barrel finish is black on both sizes. The difference is length: shorter (13.0″) gives a slightly lower rear stance; longer (13.5″) can maintain near-stock height or work with different swingarm angle preferences.Finish choice is cosmetic only; performance and construction remain the same.

Materials & build notes

Burly builds these shocks from durable steel components with a black finish that fits most cruiser builds. Internals are tuned for balanced compliance — not overly soft, not too harsh — so they will feel familiar yet improved over stock. Mount hardware and bushings are included as required for proper installation on compatible bikes.Because these are street shocks, they’re about everyday comfort and controlled feedback rather than plush touring comfort or track-stiff damping.

Installation considerations

Confirm eye-to-eye length (13.0″ or 13.5″) matches your motorcycle’s required measurement
Professional installation is recommended if you’re unfamiliar with rear suspension mounting
After install, check chain/belt alignment and rear ride height
Some bikes may need minor adjustments to preload or sag settings after swapping shocks

Correct installation and adjustments help avoid binding and uneven wear.

FAQs

Are these shocks the same except for length? Yes — both are black Stiletto shocks with identical construction. The difference is the eye-to-eye length which affects ride height.

Will these lower my bike?

The 13.0″ shocks usually give a slightly lower stance than stock on many cruisers. The 13.5″ can be closer to stock height or a mild drop depending on your bike’s geometry.

Are these good for long highway miles?

Yes. They’re tuned for street use — confident and controlled over pavement without harshness.

Do I need new mounts or hardware?

Most shocks come with the hardware needed for direct bolt-on fitment when matched to the right size.

Do these fit all cruisers?

Fitment depends on your motorcycle’s rear suspension length and mounting style. Always check required eye-to-eye length and clearance before ordering.

Is professional installation recommended?

Yes. Correct sag settings and alignment benefit handling and rider comfort.

These shocks transformed my Sportster’s handling. Much better feel in corners and the ride isn’t harsh at all.

Quality build and they look great under my bike. Setup was easy and the feel is noticeably better than stock.

Installed these in under an hour. My bike sits lower and handles way better than it ever did on factory shocks.
