I had them to take my sg shocks down to 11.25 inches 11000 miles later no problem and the ride is just as good as it was. They do good work down there.

I've got a set of 11.25" bitchin bagger shock with polished tops that I ran for a couple thousand miles. They ride just like a factory shock with less travel...cuz that's exactly what they are. Stock shocks cut down. Less travel = rougher ride in most cases.

I was really happy with them one up and just going to bike night etc. 2-up and long distance not so much. Not because of the reduced travel, but just the overall ride. Just like the stock shocks which I don't care for.

I bought a pair of legend air shocks which were quite expensive. It's the opposite with the legend shocks. I really like them two up and long distance, but one up not so much. Just depends on what your trying to achieve. I wouldn't hesitate to buy a set of the bitchin shocks if all your after is lowering the rear of the bike. Just so you realize that anytime you give up travel your giving up a little bit of ride quality in most cases.
