Default Air Suspension

Anyone out there know of a good adjustable air suspension such as Lengend, but at a lower price? I like the lowered look when parked and would like to ride at stock height. Any pros and cons would be appreciated.

Personally Im not a fan of Legend at all, way too pricy for what you get, some of the Legend air rides also have bottom clerance issues. Best bang for the buck on air ride is Progressive Suspension.

I have the progressive air kit on my 87 fxstc . The kit is really well made . I've never had any problems with it and i've had it for apx 1 year . I paid apx 1350.00 for the whole kit including the coil cover and switches .

You can get the Progressive suspension kit from Jireh cycles for about $1000.

BTW, how much should I expect to pay for labor if I get the parts myself?
