I bought into the Draggin Baggers when they first hit the forum. Put the stock shocks back on in less than a month. I left all fitting and compressor on my 06 Ultra. I might put the D B shocks back on and try it again.

Might want to check the paperwork on your remote. Had to clip a wire inside of the one I got to make it work as momentary. I've had a blast dumping the air from 20 ft away while someone is looking at the bike when its parked.

NO PAPERWORK!!!!!! Thats what you get when you buy 4 relays and 2 remotes for $19! Mine are circuit boards with a relay soldered on the board. Tiny, about 1.5" square. I'll investigate this am and see if there are any adjustments to be made.

I have a new 20a/30a 5 wire relay sitting in my tool box will this work for me? If so, I finished up ordering everything today. If not, I only have a relay left to purchase.

Thats what I used to supply power for the compressor since it is a relative high amp draw.

Depends on the system. Since I wired mine to work from a remote control and/or a dash switch, I used a relay to prevent drawing high amps thru either control system.
