I am in the same boat trying to find rear shocks to lower the bike. Problem I have is I want to make the bike more comfortable as well. I am willing to pay more money if I could find a progressive spring shock thinking that might make it ride more comfortable. I have contacted progressive thinking maybe they could build me a shock that is eye to Clevis, 11" long But with a higher load rating than the 11" generic shorty shocks. All they sent me was the link to the shocks they have available on their website which are stock 13.5" length. I wanted to get Tommy's Harley type shock and mounting kit but don't want it to be too stiff of a ride. Not sure what to do. Can't find any other options.
