Default air ride

So I also have a similar set up done by az sandbaggerz here in phoenix....it is by far the best mod on my bike ..I have 10" of travel...all the way up and I don't feel a bump on the road..get to a show and lower that thing.and it gets alot of attention .....my compressor is in my right bag and my up/ down switch is on the left side of the frame by the seat and my release button is on the right side side cover....I love it...its not only cool looking but also comfortable
oh yeah ..and I have about 1-1/2" of clearance as well from my tire ..and fender/ wiring..on stock 16" white walls and a 1" drop kit.
I will be going with a 2" drop kit and a lower profile tire to get the extended bags on the ground...with bump stop of course...

I saved you pic from before. It has helped a lot. Thanks.

My SG is an 07 so I can't put the pump in the side cover. I'm gonna make a box for under the battery or bag.

ECM and PC-v are in the right side cover, fuse block in the left side cover.

I moved the ecm under the battery. That was easier than putting the compressor under there. The compressor will also fit under the faring

Thanks for the idea. The faring is out. Don't want the lines to run that long.

Fittings I got from work (push style)
