Should have 12" shocks on it now (measured eye to eye not installed) just get a size down depending where you want to be, easiest way to lower front is loosen clamp bolts on triple tree and slide forks up higher and re-tighten clamps.

Default RE: 06 Lowrider - lowering

I purchased the rear lowering shocks the 11" ones from HD for my WG and to be it's supposed to lower the seat height approximately and inch, it may have, but not a real noticable difference. They don't look as nice as the stock ones either. The top mounting bracket is no longer polished aluminium as before. At the time progressive didn't have anything for the bike yet, maybe they do now. Good luck.
