Default Progressive 412 shocks on an Ultra

Has anyone tried the Progressive 412 HD 11.5 inch shocks on an Ultra? Any Clearance problems? How's the ride?

Yes I have them on mine as of now and they ride great and there is no clearance problems what so ever. They are on the stiffest setting because I ride 2 up a lot and loaded often and I have never had a bottoming out. I am a short facker and I am actually thinking of going with 11" after market shocks. I would be willing to make you a deal on the progressives if you decide on them. Let me know via PM but to answer your ? they handle beautifully.

Thanks for the reply AT. Unfortunately I ordered them from onestopmoto.com before I saw your reply, and they have already shipped them.
