Default Anyone ride 2 up with Burly's?

So i want to install some 10.5" Burly slammer shocks to the rear of my 09 1200c, my question is, does anyone running these shocks have any issues carrying a rider?
i still want to be able to have my wife come on rides, i weight 180 and she 115, i know the ride will be rough but im hoping for no bottoming out or rubbing under the fender.
thanks!

I'm 190, my wife is 120. Everytime we ride my bike bottoms out over anytype of big bump or pothole; factory shocks on the highest setting. I do my best to dodge them.

We ride two up all the time, I,m 160 lbs and my wife is 95 lbs, I use the middle pre-load setting and have never bottomed out. We have progressive suspension up front as well.
