Arnott Air Ride
Well I've been debating for a couple weeks about suspension. I wanted to slam it but I didnt want to lose the ride. Read all the discussions on the forum and decided to have the best of both worlds. It shipped today. I'll post pics when I finish installing which will probably be Saturday. Corey, the guy at Arnott said when extended fully, the ride is same as stock. When compressed fully tire will not rub. We shall see but im sure its much better than getting shocks that are shortened with hardly any travel.

I have the Arnott Alden system it has rebound adjustment like on a gas shock and air bag for up and down control. I love it and the compressor fits right in where your carbon filter is currently BTW it just slides out with a little coaxing then your Arnott compressor slides into its place you may have to losen the battery box to fit but once in piece of cake. I went with the handlebar switches and the gauge so I can find my sweet spot ant time I want.

I have the 12 inch on my 2006 Road Glide and really like them. All the way lowered the tire does not rub and with the on board compressor I can adjust the ride on the go. I have hooked up the compressor to my PTT switch as I do not have a CB. Also have a gauge installed to monitor air pressure.

I need a set also...the more I read about the Arnotts the more I want them. I've heard some get a pretty good price directly from Arnott.
Are they pretty easy to install and wire up?

By the way with the Alden set up you have rebound so even fully slammed I get some shock unlike the other setups they just go up and dump not that thats a bad setup but lets say you go two up the adjustability is worth it lemme tell you and the difference in looks are night and day these cans are beautiful.
