If you have a non Road Glide Ultra/Limited and you have the factory shocks, I think you are going down the wrong path. Seems everyone that has the other models complains about the shocks. If y'all indeed are on the larger side then I think you will never get happy with just a seat, it may very well get better, but I think the real answer is in the rear suspension. The after market shocks are an improvement over factory and the Ultra/Limited shocks have more travel than the other RG shocks. Best of luck!
