There's lots of HD Sportster/Dyna shocks on Ebay for cheap; I've seen them as low as $20 for OEM including shipping, are usually chrome, and all it takes is a little fiddlin' with bushings to make them fit the XS. These are much closer in weight to the XS (late Sporties run about 570 wet, Dynas about 620) so would be a better match IMO. I intend to look for some Dyna take-offs for mine....
