I bought the H-D pump and carry it on the bike. I'm surprised how many bagger riders have never checked their shock air pressure. Usually, when they say the've never checked it, the air pressure is zero. They're amazed at the difference in the ride with 15-20lbs of air.
I've ran into a few of them. Most of the time when I check their pressure is at zero too. They are under the illusion that the pressure is set at the dealership and they will never go down from that. I love the look on their faces when they say it rides nice and they see the pressure at zero.

I like mine. Works great, and I don't know how it does it, but no loss of air disconnecting it. I think when you are dealing with 10 to 15 psi, it makes a difference..

I borrowed my friends and found it works great. Not a bad thing to have in your bag. Like others mentioned, zero bleed off and makes adjustments a snap..

Order from Zanotti's and save a bundle. Make sure you order plenty of other items to make the savings worthwhile after you pay the freight.

Item No. 54630-03A
Description AIR PUMP KIT SHOCK ABSOR
Price $ $ 31.36

"Very good quality! Easy to use! Buy the sure thing!!"

I agree, it's very compact, well made and won't blow-out your air shock systemby accidentally using too much air/volume/pressure. That air system holds a very tiny amount of air by volume. If you're not careful you could damage it using too big of a pump.

I have an HD pump that I will be getting rid of soon. If you still need one (or anyone else for that matter) PM me and we will talk price. I only used it a few times and it works great. There is nothing wrong with it. I am only getting rid of it because I switched over to the Legends Air Suspension.

I got mine from Sports Authority for vollyballs, great pressure and works very well, but what can you expect for 8.00. It would be worth much more if it said HD on it.

And it wouldn't lose air when you unscrew it. You never know how much air you have in your shocks.
