Legend AirRide Vs. Progressive AirTail
Assuming I can pick up a Legend AirRide on ebay for less than $1000......should I get the legend system or the Progressive AirTail system?
Which one would be more reliable, comfortable for longer trips 2 up with luggage?
I am also considering the AirTails and just use the hand pump to keep the costs down.
Pro's/ Con's?

I have the Legends on my 04 Standard and love it. Have been riding for two years and only had one problem, we had failed the pump. I contacted Legends and they were more that courteous and helpful. Sent me out another pump right away and I haven't had a problem since. I like the lower ride for in the city and when Krusin you can pump it up on the go to match weight and comfort of ride.
If interested I do have another pump as check valve (new) that I was going to use on another project but so far wife says no. Go figure!!

Not bad at all. The exhaust and seat will need to be removed. I the jacked the bike up to change out the shocks also installing the air hoses and wiring at that time. One thing I did do was to run the wiring through black shrink tubing. Did not heat it to shrink it, looks great and does a nice job of hiding the wires. Anyway the instructions were pretty straight forward and in the entire install took me about 4 hours. One thing I did change from the instructions is where I mounted the raise/lower switch. They will have you mount it on the billet housing holding the gauge on the right side of the rocker box. I found this to be rather inconvenient to adjust ride height when riding. I have since drilled a hole between the key switch and speedometer just to the left. Now I can operate the switch with my left hand while riding.
