Has anyone thought about putting a height control valve in one of these setups? It would control the pressure to keep the ride height the same regardless of the weight of the load? I suppose you would need a small air tank then and where do you mount it.

Home Depot doesn't carry anything for 1/8" line, the smallest is 1/4".

I'm sure push locks would work fine I just didn't have any available locally so brass it was. They definitely would be quicker/easier to install.

Module relocation
I just finished doing my install on my 07 Road King today and I had to make room on the right side of the bike where it seems most people have space.
I will be posting a full write up with part numbers, prices, pics and issues soon.
I can honestly say that insight from others made this a pretty straight forward job.
That being said I did have to figure a few things out for myself and that which I did may have only been specific to what I did.

Not very familiar with RGs but look under the faring. Outlaw bagger put his behind the left side plate.

Try looking behind the left side pannel. You can look at my post air ride install part 2 for pictures. Hope this helps.

Put the Gabriel 49304 shocks on today and took a ride. I rode it as far down as it would go without being "rigid". Bike rode a little stiffer but tire did not rub at all. When I had the bike in the air I felt inside the fender. There are no wires running inside of my fender. With the extreme mod seat from MeanCity Cycles and these shocks I feel like I'm sitting on the ground.
Since I ride solo about 98% of the time I may not even go to the trouble to put a compressor on mine. May put the compressor on later. I ride it low anyway. I basically just replaced the factory setup and lowering blocks I was using to the new Gabriel setup. I like the way it sits.
