You might find Progressive 12 Series in black. It’s the only one that comes to mind for me. Bitubo is sold by Traxxion Dynamics. I don’t know about them. YSS?
I do like the 412 on my bike.Marty (in Mississippi)

Pretty sure IKON suspension has them in black. Best shock available in my opinion. Used to be known as Koni shocks but was bought out and name changed. Kind of pricey last time I checked though but it has been a while.2-79 XS1100 SF
2-78 XS1100 E Best bike Ever
80 XS 1100 SG Big bore kit but not fully running yet.
Couple of more parts bikes of which 2 more will live!Comment

Howdy,,,,the Honda and Harley air shocks are readily available,,lots of guys take off the shocks when new and put in aftermarket,,,,also the xj1100 maxim air shocks are very nice but not black. I faintly recall the Honda 1100 models were a direct fit,,,maybe do a search for the many threads on shocks for the xs1100...worst case get a good pair if not black and some good black spray paint

Of the three brands I posted, Ikon is the least expensive, available with black covers. Also rebuildable. I can’t speak to performance, but I expect they get it done!Marty (in Mississippi)

Just ordered these for my Voyager, they haven't arrived yet but they certainly are black. Seller states they have shocks for other bikes in stock
