tracking several different posts discussing shocks -- I have the 2010 Ultra as well, and I'm curious -- What problems are you experiencing?  While 2-up the bumps are kinda hard, but otherwise the bike handles far better than my 08 King, so I've been content.  Lately I've started reading where many are switching shocks.  I'm 6'3" 240 lbs and passenger is 150 lbs -- Is your ride really rough?

I have a 2010 SEUC, and wanted to lower it. Went with Progressive 940's on the rear. Lowered the bike about an inch, which is great. The by product is the ride is smoother. At first I wasn't sure it was the shocks. But after riding  the bike 200 miles, and adjusting the preload to different settings I am sure the shocks made a huge difference over stock. Smoother ride, bike just feels glued to the road better. Will be lowereing the front also with the Progressive Mono tubes, and will report back on the ride. :2vrolijk_21:

Progressive Suspension has been a good fit on mine, 940's in the back and Mono tubes in the front. Love the way it handles. We lowered out bike an inch with those shocks. You can get standard length shocks.

I've got the Legend Air system on my SEUC and it's awesome. I had no idea what a great set up this was until I tried it for the first time. The ability to change air pressure on the fly to accommodate for sudden changes in road conditions or loads is remarkable. If you start bouncing on the highway with the expansion joints, trim it a bit and it's rock solid. Really slick.

Put ST's on the RG and love them. I"m about 260 lbs and wifey is 130 lbs. They work great. I had nothing but trouble out of the air shocks.
