Been having a issues with the Johnson rod on a new 2018 iron 1200. I don’t know what to do at this point.

OP what is a Johnson rod for a Sportster?
a) A rod used to control the timing of, and how long the valves stay open on a steam locomotive.
b) Johnson Rods
LR3 Lift Kit works with in conjunction your factory airbag springs to control the height of your vehicle by adjusting the height sensor level with a shorter rod.
I don't know what your are describing.


Or are you describing your *****? (joke)
