A buddy of mine recently stopped by a local Stealership for a free cup of coffee on his way to an appointment at Walter Reed.

Ended up buying a 2013 CVO Ultra Classic Electra Glide.

Talk about an impulse buy...

The impotant thing here is that he got genuine HD air. When I get new tires I always take the wheels off and take them to Harley so the new tires will have HD air. They last 4 to 5 thousand miles longer that way. Oh oh! I think my tonque is stuck in my cheek.

Yep. They should go buy parts at a Honda dealer.

do you have to remove all the old air first, or do you just add a little as needed? can you use the same weight air in the winter and summer? are they still using that chinese air in the air shocks?
