Thumbs up, all the way...functional, FUN and easy to operate. Now that I'm used to it, I would'nt want to give it up. Nothin' like ridin' down the road and hittin' the slam switch, pullin' in to park and lettin' off the air blast or jackin' it up when ya leave! Cool mod for any badass bagger!
I agree Bountyhunter. It's been pouring down rain here for the last few weeks, but today the sun came out and I just got back from a nice (cold!) ride. And once again I was amazed at how much I enjoy the Draggin Baggers Air Ride system. No complaints - just a real blast.
Well,,, it does put me in a position to flat foot. On the other hand, I find that it is a little stiffer ride and at the same time bottoms out a little too easy for me. I will keep it on until I decide to do something else. I dont see it staying on my bike forever. I may put my stock system back on and wear my platform shoes from the 70's

other than it being a novelty (like hydraulics)- what is the benefit?
Well to be honest - the novelty is one of the best parts. I mean, look at all the other goofy stuff we all do to our bikes from wheels to chrome this or that, that have no real benefit whatsoever except make us enjoy them more. So there's nothing wrong with novelty in my book. But aside from that, I really like being able to adjust the ride on the fly to whatever conditions I'm on, and find the ride every bit as good as stock if not better in many circumstances.
I know there has been some discussion on this matter, but what about belt tension issues? Anyone had a problem, did you readjust the belt during installation or leave it alone?
