KZR Classifieds has a set of HD Sportster shocks.
And ebay usually has a selection.
Would also check with Z1E.
Good Luck!

Good shocks are going to be spendy, no way around it man. Is the 1100 eye to eye? If so keep your eyes open for ZRX shocks (they'll pull about $300-400 a pair on ebay pretty easily). Aside from those check in with Works (google them, they customize to order without being retardedly expensive. Ohlins are top of the line, but they're going to set you back HUGE.
If you don't want to spend the money for upper crust shocks check out the selection at www.mikesxs.com (assuming the 1100 has eye to eye shocks and not eye to clevis). I'm running the $80 progressive wound (not progressive brand) shocks from there and they are very firm and responsive. For about $170 you can get the reservoir shocks from the same place, no idea how those perform though, but I'd imagine they are good based on the other products I've picked up from the site.
Hope something here helps!
