Use the search tool searching by Progressive.  Many many many (many) have switched out the crappy leaking bottoming out minimally effective marginally worthless POS (but otherwise ok) air shocks with the Progressive 440 shocks.  You'll not fully appreciate the difference good shocks can make in how more comfortably the bike rides and how better it will handle until you've made the switch.

Progressive website shows that at this present time no shocks are avaliable for CUSE '06. I spoke with them and they confirmed that  are doing some tests but not recommend any model [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

I was thinking the SEUC had the standard Ultra shocks, but looking at their site they don't even offer anything for 06 models other than for the FXST/FLST.  Strange...

Tbone, which machine do you like better, the SEEG or the SEUC?  Just curious.  I noticed you have both.

Loose,
I haven't had the SEUC but a few months but so far I like the SEEG much better.  I've had some issues with the SEUC, some of them self induced, but I've never had any problems with the SEEG other than the tourpack light which happened early on.  I'm sure I'll get the SEUC dialed in eventually but I think the SEEG will always be my favorite.
