lowered mine an inch with the HD Profile Lowering shocks. I adjusted them about half way to stiffen them up b/c they were too soft on the setting out of the box. But they ride pretty good now, I'm about 230lbs. Haven't ridden 2up yet. The look is awesome though.

Get an airride if you still want a good ride. I have the Hi Lo Rider air ride. See the pics in my gallery. http://www.hi-lorider.com/

I have my '05 Anniversary Fat Boy lowered 2", but we don't use this one for two-up. I weigh 300lbs and it rides slightly better than my rigid Shovel.
If I was of normal weight maybe it would ride better, though-lol.
