You learn to live with it. I have a life time prescription for muscle relaxants and narcotics. Missing chunks of bone and disc at 2 levels in my lumbar spine (should have had a fusion years ago). I have days that I can't get in and out of the Subaru or the Ranger w/o a cane. Legs tend to go to sleep after an hour or so in the Subie...
Savage has Intruder 800 shocks. No issues other than the handling, while better than stock, and the ride, while better than stock, suck. Bad back be dam*ed, my bike is getting a rigid conversion and a sprung seat. Have ridden rigids several times post op, it doesn't hurt any worse than a suspension bike does. And the handling is soooo much better...
It's funny, I can go 2 miles in a Kenworth T800/W900, a few hundred in a Peterbilt 377/378/379, or all day on a motorcycle. The bike seems to knock everything into proper position.
