what do I need?
I have a 2011 Electra Glide Classic Ultra. From what I have read, Ohlins is the way to go. The height from the stock shocks is ideal for me. I never ride 2 up and usually carry 15lbs of stuff in the trunk with the saddle bags mostly empty. a few times a year I do some traveling and the baggage goes up to around 50lbs distributed pretty much equally in all the bags. I weigh in at around 275lbs
What model do I need and roughly how much is this going to cost? I assume that I can install the new shocks myself.

Ohlins #3-3, are bolted up, with help from Howard. Took it out for a short ride, before starting the setup, wow what a difference, I can only imagine what it's going to be like once Preload, Damp & Reb are set. If you have been toying with the idea of purchasing a set, I think this will play out to be the best investment for my street glide yet...
