Im new thunderbird 1600 owner.
A member of this forum tell me how improve the rear shocks, installing for example Hagon shocks.
I found this. But i dont find information because the seller doesnt show the referencie.
Can You tell me something: model, specifications, or Hagon's catalog for this model.
Thanks!

If you're considering Hagon shocks, the Nitro is popular. There's a lot of info using the forum search engine in 2 year increments, for example 2015 through 2017. To choose the right shock depends on rider/passenger/cargo weight and riding style, also Hagon tech support is very helpful. Good Luck

They have stock length, lowering 10 - 30 mm. They have several load springs as well, depend on your travel weight, etc. The Nitro's are the ones to go for.
This picture show mine, bike lowered 30mm.

They will ask you a lot of questions, you just have to make up with your self if you want to lower or remain stock riding height.
