I have a set of legends Aero-A air shocks I will sell for $950. The kit has 2500 miles on it. I really liked them for going back and forth between two up and single riding. However after riding a friends bike with ohlins shocks, I called Howard at Motorcycle Metal and ordered a set

Aren't you running into clearance issues with the c-clip on the axle and the muffler with the longer shock? It would have to be on the jack to tell but without spacing the mufflers down on mine anyway they would hit on anything longer than stock

I had to increase the depth of the existing clearance depression in the muffler about 1/4". A few taps with a ball peen hammer took care of it. I now have about 1/8" of clearance with the suspension fully extended.
