Default Skully Air Ride

Does anyone have reviews or bad things to say about these kits? I'm looking to put air on my 14 flhxs and was curious of ride quality over springs such as progressive etc

My cousin and his friend just had them installed on their street glides at bike week. They loved them so much I'm having mine done at Leesburg next week

unless your friend let you take a ride to see what you think , of the air ride -- in my mind , you will B or might B making a mistake or not ,, I have never ever seen a person spend ton of money , and say they don't like what they bought , PERIOD I am looking to slam my bike , BUT if person that will slam it won't let take there's for test ride , I WON"T BUY way to much money to rely on other persons opinion ..

PS cool is cool BUT if ride sucks , not so much and don't go by HD manual 20 psi max in air shocks , I run 30 psi never bottom out or cringe when tracks coming up ,, and the ride is great .

I'd look at other company's, just search for skulls on forums, not so good reviews.
Much better options out there. Dirty Air !

Thanks everyone for your input! I've put only about 100 miles on them and like them so far. Will update with any more positives or negatives. It's a Monroe shock and half the cost of dirty air, hence the reason I went with them

I've seen numerous brands with non-welded eyes start out at $299 then up from there. Welded eyes on the same kit are $399 and up.

Yeah, my cousin had given me Rodney's number. I called him and that's how I found out about Leesburg
