air shocks
Just got 2008 Streetglide and was wondering how to increase or decrease the air in the rear shocks? Do you need the Harley air pump or can you use any air compressor? Thanks in advance for you help.

RE: air shocks
It is important that whatever hand pump you use has the ability to disconnect with out bleeding any air-pressure off. Some more expensive bicycle pumps have this feature as does the HD pump. The reason is the shocks have arelatively small air volume and the slightest bleed-off will significantly effect the resulting remaining pressure.
Hope this helps,

RE: air shocks
Use the Harley Air Pump. It is small, fits in a saddle bag, will let air out, going from 2 up to 1, it ia the cheaapest investment you can make. anything else is not portable and may over inflate the shocks. Plus HD pump is accurate.
