Default Burly slammer- is the ride a lot worse than stock?

I have been advised that the ride on the slammer shocks is filled with “slammer” experiences. I guess the bottom line in my research to date is that there is not a good solution currently available to lower a sportster. I was hoping to perhaps find something that wasn’t obvious or less than marginal - still hoping for a Pearl.

Soft suspension has a long travel and hard suspension has a short travel . There's no getting away from that .
