Or race tech gold valves ect.for the frontend ?

I'm running those Progressives on the rear of my 06 Dyna. They are a lot better than the stock shocks. You will not be disappointed. Two things - I don't think they sell them in the stock length, so you will be lowering the rear a little. Spring preload is critical. Make sure you crank up the preload with the tool provided with the shocks. Speaking of that tool - it sucks balls. It's made of pot metal, bends easy and cuts your hands. But the shocks are worth every penny. Here is a pic of them on my bike .....
