Just kidding lol VTX Josh would be best to answer this one.
I’m not sure specifically about the VTX, but I know a lot of people that went with Progressive Shocks on Sabres. Web site -> http://progressivesuspension.com/appview.asp?AppsNumber=5382

Progressive is the best you can get for a VTX. i have a VTX 1300C with the Heavy-Duty progressives. they come in different lengths as well if you want to lower your X. i wouldnt go any lower than 11" though.

here is a pic with progressives shocks.
