shocks

hey guys I have a 13 road glide custom lower a inch in the front with mono tubes and a inch in the rear with a LA Choppers lowering block. The bike fits me well and I want to stay with the 1 inch drop in the rear but i want to lose the factory air shocks. I have about $400 to spend. i was looking at progressive 412's and 440's but for touring models all I see are 11.5 inch. any thoughts on running 11 inch shocks for a v-rod or dyna? Or any other options? I weigh 140 pounds if that helps.
Thanks

I'm curious what shock you ended up getting ? I have a 2010 Ultra that I have stripped down. I'm about ready to replace the stock shocks, been thinking about 12" Progressive 412's.

I'm running 11 1/2" Progressive 944's on the back of my Electra Glide Classic... The front springs are an inch shorter then stock... I was 440's on before that.... I've got over 45k on the bike now and love the set up.
