Default What do you think about a 13" rear shock on a Road King Custom???

Stock RK Custom shocks are 12" and I am unable to fill them up with air. I have a bad valve so I priced out changing the valve and all fittings and lines. Price is around $125.00. Now here is my problem. I can get a set of Works shocks new from a buddy for $250.00 but they are 13". I don't have any reach problems as I am 6' 0" tall. I am wondering about handling characteristics. What do you guys think. BTW I ride 2 up half the time. I weigh 210 and my wife weighs 130. Maybe that will help. Any info would be greatly appreciated!
