Installed progressive 412 last night!
Wow!!! Took a long lunch today and racked up 50 miles and love them! I ended up going with 12". I really didnt want to go with a lowered spring, even though after I got them installed I was thinking that 11 1/2 wouldnt of been bad.
Very easy mod. I ended up painting the chrome caps that slide on the top bolt. Used the same epoxy paint I used on the front forks. Pretty stoked on how they came out!

I have the same shocks (in chrome) on my 09 Super Glide Custom. It dropped the rear of mine almost an inch, but I'm guessing yours stayed the same height, as Street Bobs have shorter shocks stock (I think). I'm also happy with the ride of mine, although I can't say its drastically better than stock.

I've had them on both my dynas and have been very happy with them.
Don't regret the decision to not lower the bike too much. I went with 11" ones last time and it screwed my ground clearance when pushing hard.
I went with the 12" this time and the bike is much better to ride...

I went with the 12.5" this time and the bike is much better to ride...

That's exactly why I went with 12''s! I already drag my pegs and exhaust. Thanks for kind words!
