Black springs are an option. Not sure about remote reservoir.

Hi Mark, XB12R here, amongst other V-twins! I've looked at Kyle's website. All I will say is that Motorcycle Metal specialise in custom-built Ohlins for Harleys, which includes setting them up for dressers.

Howard @ Motorcycle Metal (forum sponsor) used this place as he has worked with them previously:

They did a great job. Not an easy job with these shocks, and Howard told me I have the only set of Ohlins that are chromed.
