I see these guys advertising frequently in the Black Hills. They are from Sturgis. No one ever talks about them on the forum. Always Shotgun Shocks. Has any one bought from Legend? Is their product any good? It would be very convenient for me since I am in the hills about twice a month, to have them work on my Heritage. Just wondering.

I just got Legend front and rear (Ultra - 09)
I haven't looked to see if they make the shocks for the FLST.
I did front and rear, and I'm still tweeking my rear shocks. A great improvement for mine.

AFAIK user Rocker B runs the Legend air ride on his Breakout.

Here's his build thread >>

One advantage over the Shotgun Shocks is that Legend offers handlebar controls...

I'm very happy with the Legend Air Ride, I installed it on my Breakout about a year ago and haven't had any problems, works great!!

Will be nice to see some alternative air ride systems showcased here. Better wear your kevlar though.

I couldn't find the specific Legend posts.

The other advantage I see is the hydraulic damping.
