Default Bagger Suspension?

I have an 06 street glide with the air shocks which i'm not real impressed with. Anyone put coil overs in place of these? What shock will offer a better ride?

Do a search for shocks. You will be amazed how many guuys are spending big money on upgrading their ride. Check out howard mesner. He's on here and knows more than I will ever know about suspension. If your not that interested go with some progressives. You just have to determine how far you want to go with this thing. Howard sells carbon fiber wheels for touring bikes as well.
