YOU SUCK!! [:@]I want that system soo bad, but havent done my taxes yet..afraid it might be a big enough return I guess...although I just bought a house and last year was the first complete year ofpayments, finally a write off . Do you have video capability? Id love to see a video of going up & comming back down..Im guessing it has a small dump so u can lower it slowly instead of just slamming it. How was the install?

That was one bad ***, hot looking bike before and now it's even better.
Great job.
Can't wait to see it with the front end lowered too.

Hey, barhpr, Don't have vedio capability. Sorry man.
The install wasn't bad at all. About 5 hrs.
Take the money that Busch is handing to stimulate the economy
Can't think of a better thing to with it other than that.....

The SAS system is cool. Just keep in mind it will block the transmission drain plug because both shocks are one unit. Look to extend the drain before you complete the install.


I have the Airtail on my 02 HS...I love it. It's cool be able to slam the end down when you get to where your going..

Great advice! Already covered that end of the install. Got a fresh fill of Redline Shockproof in the tranny, so that's good for a bit

I also picked up a remote setup from Custom Dynamics to slam it when parked, or to air it up when about to take off.
