Stock is 12".  Quite a few here changed to 12.5" Progressives when they swapped.  But 12" was stock.

I can't speak for 2Lane, but I went with the 12.5" std duty (weigh 210#'s) over the 12 " as I figured the .5" more travel might make it ride better.  I think the Progressive's made my bike handle better and ride better.  No more air to pump up either.  The ride height looks about the same and measured about the same with my old shocks to the new.

Like you never wanted a little extra length?

In my case the choice was made becasue the view of the ride height would not really change while I hoped it might gain a bit of clearance extra to avoid scraping floorboard supports or kickstand.
