Yes-I went to an E-glide shock on my '11 SG and it made a huge difference. I used a shock off an '09 and later E-glide which was designed to go with the new frame/suspension set-up of the '09 & later bikes. Others say the pre-'09 shocks ride softer yet, however I don't know if that degrades the handling any on the newer bikes.

Can anyone help to answer this before I jump on it?

Yes it will. I replaced my 2011 shocks with custom shocks from my 2003 Road King and they slipped right on. There is no new frame issues regarding using earlier rear shocks, or later shocks on the earlier bikes.
