No, have you yet?
I'm looking to get a better air shock 1 or 2 inch shorter that can ride better than stock
Let me know what you find out

I've had a set of the regular 422's on my 09 crossbones, I really thought it was a great improvement, but I don't know if the added price of the /rap would be worth it. Still looking

i've been reading a lot about Progressive 940s seems like thats the prefered choice for touring models, I'm wondering if gas shocks are going to ride softer than the stock rear air shocks on my RK, which just gotta go. still researching though

Are you thinking about buying a set of 422s w rap even though you have 422s now? Did they not make a considerable amount of differance in your ride

Yeah, thats not a cheap fix but it looks like it's well made - pictures!?!- never trust them.
The part about the 2 inch increase in travel might be the direction you need to research.
