Lowering a 900 LTD in rear by 1" to 2"

Does anyone know, who makes lowered rear shocks for a 900 LTD? Or, what can I do to get the back down a little bit? Just want the bike to set down more.

Consider a used set of HD Sportster shocks.

They used to make a lowering kit that moved the bottom shock mount rearwards causing the the bike to be lowered about an inch. You had to be careful though cause if you carried a passenger or a lot of camping gear the tire would rub the inner fender. I will see if I can find a pic and post it for you.

I bought a pair of KZ400 shocks on CL for a couple bucks. I haven't tried them yet, but I figured they'd lower me a bit. Hoping to put them on soon and take some measurements.
