FastHarley and Matt, the air in the Harley air shocks do nothing for ride height, they assist with dampening and rebound. More air makes them stiffer and faster, and does nothing to change the ride height.
Matt, I got my airs off Ebay for 35.00. I don't think that you can get springs, or change the shock oil for that price. They only required some 3.00 air fittings and 3.00 spacers to put them on. I added 35.00 more in lowering blocks because they raised my bike too much.
Joe, you can buy the all chrome ones off Ebay, but they are a little more costly as the ones I have seen are all new. Check out Debrix on Ebay and Performance Motorsports.

That was a heck of a deal! Which seller did you get them off? Was it just a 'I took these off and got new ones' sale? I guess I'll keep my eyes peeled on the 'bay for a bit, if theres deals like that out there I'd be a fool not to.

see pics of my 2004 xl1200c in the classifieds. I have RK shocks that came off of a new bike that was customized. I put progressive forksprings up front with ~12.5 wt forkoil and the ride is amazing compare to stock. so much more smoth, no bottom outs, no jarring front end, feels like a comfortable ride
