You can get 11.5 or 12" factory air shocks and roll with those. You can always cut em down later, if that inch is important enough. That's what I'm doing.

I have RK shocks on my Dyna. I thought about using a single point fill but didnt want to fuss with the hose thing. I went to O'Reilly's and bought 1/8" tank valves. I mounted the shocks so the schrader valves point forward. Oreilly's also had some vivid black acorn valve stem caps that looked and worked great. Then bought a pump. I like the ride but it does show the weakness in the front suspension. Next mod I guess.

Arnott started making the dyna air ride set up again. I put it on my wide glide last week. It seems to be a very nice set up. Hog pro sells the kit with black shocks to forum members for $450 shipped. I got the chrome shocks, and i think it was $650. As soon as it warms up I'll get to see how it rides.
