Air adjustable front forks? If so, where is the air valve to add air?

The 2 valves are next two each other behind the saddle bag.

Nope, don't think so. Only the rear is air adjustable.

NO. Mine is an 03. The last year for air adjustable shocks on the front was 01. Too bad cause my 00 rode a lot better with the air front.

I have an 02 ultra and it has hydraulic front and air in back, with the air valve for it is behind the right saddlebag. I believe you have the same set up as me.

the last year for air front ends was 2000. Your front is springs and hydraulic fluid. No air. The air is in the back and only on the left side behind the saddle bag lid...one valve for both shocks.

Good luck!

Do NOT use a gas station type air hose... You will ruin it... buy the special hand pump

There's only one air valve below the tour pack on the left side behind the saddle bag lid so I guess my '03 Ultra don't have the front fork with air.

I've got the small HD hand pump for the rear shocks.
