Default another post on shocks

i did a quick search but didn't find anything on this.

does anyone have any knowledge on how the progressive ultra-low 944 shocks compare to the hd premium hand adjustable low shocks?

i have short legs, and really like the idea of being an inch lower than the hand adjustables, but dont want to totally sacrifice ride comfort.

thanks

(and before it is said, i wouldn't be buying the progressives at full pop. if i was gonna do that, i would just suck it up and go with the superlowshocks from howard. which i may end up doing anyway, doesn't seem like a lot of the ultralow progressives for sale used)
