Default Air Suspension Question

Stupid question but something I need to know. I have a 2004 RK Classic with the standard leather bags. For some reason, I cannot find the place to check the air pressure in the rear shocks. I know its obvious to most people but I simply can't find it. Please be specific in your answer and a pic would be even better.

On my 07 Road King, the adjustment is hidden under the sissy bar plate on the left side. I have to remove the sissy bar to adjust the sir shocks.

Same here. Worst case is pull off your seat and sissy bar and follow the lines form the shocks. If you bought the bike used it's possible the previous owner relocated it somewhere else.

Silly question, but you're sure it has the standard air shocks? You can see air lines coming off the top of them, right?
