A thousand threads on shocks now. As for this forum Ohlins, Legion, Progessive and Pro-Action seem to be the most popular. There are a couple of brands that DK sells also that I cannot remember.
As for the super shox I had never heard of them before you mentioned them on a different thread.
I am sure they are better than stock for sure. About anything is. Good luck with your research.

I have the Pro-Action shocks and am very happy with them. One of the guys I ride with has the Super Shox on his 2008 Ultra Classic and has high praise for them as well.

I recently sold my '12 Limited, but I had SuperShox on it for 2 years. They were a good shock, much better than OEM air shocks, and as mentioned above... very easy to adjust the preload from one to two riders, no tools needed.
I have to admit however, they never really made me feel like I had one of the best shocks I could get. I was always still looking and reading about other shocks. I never felt like I found the sweet spot dialing them in. Again, they were a very good shock, just not awesome... I was expecting more.
I have a '16 bagger that I'm about to upgrade the suspension on, but I will be getting something other than the Supershox this time...

Pro Actions are super easy to adjust multiple turns as the collar rotates so freely after you unclamp them with an Allen wrench. I can rotate the collar 5 turns as fast as my hand can twist it pretty much.
The ride versus the Ohlins is quite a but better as well. The dampening and spring rate make for a much, much more comfortable ride. However I can’t commemt on pushing it hard into corners, as I haven’t done that with the Pro Actions. The Ohlins were definitely a good shock there, I just haven’t been down a road like that wth the Pro Actions yet
Those Super Shox look like they have a lot of great features. The tool less adjustment is pretty nice. Are they actually a “seperated shock” ? I might have to get a pair and try them out if that’s indeed case
