Tony - you mean well, we all know that. It's just overboard.
Nothing wrong with sending people JD's way and letting people know what a great product he makes and what great customer service he has (and I agree 100% - great product / exceptional customer service)
But maybe just tone it down a bit. It almost seems "fake" or like you get a kick back (which I know you don't)
Maybe just let people know about it, and if they are interested - hit em' with a pm

Exactly. Tony, it would be one thing if you posted and said a few words to recommend the ShotgunShock. But when every other post from you is a novel length advertisement for the thing it just starts to seem like spam. It is great that you are happy with the product, and if someone asks you what you think of it, then telll them. But when you come into threads that are not asking, and post a reply that takes 5 minutes to read it turns people off. Both Shotgun owners, and people who are on the fence. Just my .02

I know..I know, bad cell phone pics. That life proof case kills what little camera ability it had to start with

Tony is very passionate about the Shotgun Shock and I have come to expect those kinds of replies from him. ... The way it has gotten on this forum to where you can't bring up an issue you are having or even have an objective discussion about the Shotgun Shock without being badgered or accused of doing something wrong is totally out of hand. In my life I have learned more from those that don't agree with me than those that do, if things are discussed in a civilized manor.
I agree. Say what you want about long-winded, repetitive posts, but he ain't wrong.
I've found the SS to be everything he says it is...

noob question, my question about shotgun and other air rides, when its all slammed down, does it still offer the same comfort you have as if its all the way up ? I cant figure it out in my mind how the air ride works compared to stock shocks..

If you have it slammed you will have a hard ride, as there is no cushion. Same with having it extended completely up, where both air chambers are full, there would be no bounce.

Correct. If you have it slammed there is no air in the shocks and you are riding on the bump stops. You can have the bike lowered significantly from stock height and still have a decent ride though just not slammed all the way.
