Smile Shotgun shock upgrades and service A1

As I've said before I possibly bought the last E-bay shotgun shock unit.
I had a minor problem and saw the chance to do the quick release bolts and grab the bigger compressor upgades.
The bigger compressor is easily twice the size of the previous one.
The problem I had was fitting it into the right spot.
Us Aussies (I think) have extra bits on our bikes and one of them is an Active Exhaust Module that works a butterfly on the upper exhaust.
This gets in the way of the bigger compressor. I had to remove the AEM
or have no air ride.
I did not want to tamper with the butterfly so I removed the cable from the AEM and tied it to the exhaust mounting tube and stretched it out and tied it open. It still looks legal as you didn't really see it before.

With talking to JD (email) He was extremely helpful and with quick replies.
Once he was finished he shipped it off and then let me know it was
on it's way. It took about a week before I had it in my hands.

Now my only problem is it's been a week since I emailed him for details
on how to pay him for the bigger compressor.
And He has not replied.
I hope I didn't send him broke working on my unit without charging.

To use an American term without upsetting anyone.

"I just can't say enough about him"

Except What a real gentleman and Business man he is.

Pics maybe extracted if harassed.

Just installed the shotguns in my fatboy last week. It's been a pleasure working with JD.
