I have taken them apart & cut 2 or 3 coils out of the springs.Depending on the style of shock will determine how they come apart.Some aftermarket shocks are easy,while some OEM are a pain to get apart.The last set I done were 11" aftermarket & I took out two coils.I ended up with a set of 9" shocks.Not a lot of travel left,but enough to soften the bumps.Also hardtails will not pass safety inspection here in P.E.I.

did the kick stand hit the ground at all while cornering?
