Default Shock recommendations

I’m thinking about new shocks for my 95 Springer FXSTS.
It currently running the stock shocks with a lowering kit.
I want to keep it low. I only ride it solo and I ride it pretty conservatively, that is to say not overly aggressively.
Im looking for something better than or at least equal to stock that won’t break the bank.
I know progressives are around $500. I could justify that but not the 1k to $1500 for legends..
Just looking for options suggestions advise or whatever you got...

Ive had the Progressive 422 on my bike for more than 40,000 miles and they are still working great, much better than stock and both dampening and ride height are adjustable.
They are on Ebay new for about $ 400

I agree with XARAN, I have over 20K on mine (16 Deluxe) even lowered 1 inch they ride much better than the stockers, I went with the RAP version to make preload adjustments so much easier.
Here is the web link for your bike I believe:https://www.progressivesuspension.co...ringer-classic Ride safe.
