Talking Air ride installed...

Got it all done the other night, took about 4 hours (Mostly because we some how lost the 1/4" air line) but none the less it was a fairly painless install and I couldn't be happier with the results.


Here is a video of the shocks in action..

And all back together..

Bonus points for the first person to tell me what set-up it is...

I guess old guys do rule.. A buddy of mine told me about Corvette shocks, I put some thought Into it, got my hands on some quality components and went for it.. The shocks have a life time warranty on them, and all other components are out of the Arnott catalog. Only potential week link would be the shocks them selves, and again, life time warranty, so I figured why not ? I went through every thread I could find on DB and wrote down every flaw with their system then got to work. I modified the bottom shock mount (the one that would hit the pipes) used higher quality O rings, urithane bushings, and stainless hardware.. I can even ride fully slammed with no rubbing. 400 miles so far and its nice and plush, ofcorse I way a ton so that could be it, but I'm happy so far...

Flame away my friends

Great looking bike, looks new not a 92. I read about draggin air and all the issues with them, lucky that with some know how you could make them better. Props man.
