You might want to look at air shocks from a SG or RG. My nightster had the 11" shocks and when two up it would bottom out and the ride sucked. I installed the SG 11.5" shocks and they are great, I can adjust them for just me or when the OL rides.

You can't go wrong with the touring shocks. I got the 13" ones since they were cheaper and more readily available. I then added a lowering kit to make it look a little better when at rest.
If you're doing a lot of 2up, I wouldn't even bother with the lowering kit. But overall, the shocks are amazeballs.
