Default Bitchin Baggers OEM Air Drop Shocks

Has anyone used the Bitchin Baggers OEM Air Drop Shock? I want to lower the rear of my 2009 Street Glide about 1". Thanks

I sent mine to them also. I live in Ohio and they were back to me in one week. Very happy with the service. I also purchased a Bagger brace from them . No more high speed "shake" . Very happy with them overall.

Default B&B shocks

I've had them on my 08 Sg for quite awhile. I got the 10 3/4" shocks. The ride is acceptable not great but definitely worth the money and trade off to get the bike low enough and still have some control of the ride.

I went with them and they work. I will say don't believe you can give up 1" or more of travel and not notice it. I went with there set up as I run an 21" front and 18" rear. With the 18" rear lowering blocks will not work or the tire hits the fender/wiring. With their lowered shock you keep the same stop so nothing rubs! I also ride 2 up with them on long rides.

I thought their service was exccelent. I was not happy with the setup on my first shocks and they worked with me very well to make me happy.

Some great info...thanks. I am trying to lower my profile (I am 5'6") as well and want to find something that allows me to get my feet planted well. What is the standard shock length on a roadglide? What is the HD shorter shock? I am thinking 13" stock, 12" short. I would like another 2 inches but worry about bottoming out....thoughts?
