Seems like several have had issues with the Frightprops valves. I'm using this for a dump valve and have had 0 issues in 11k miles.

i looked at the hanger to see if i could get it to slide over a little but I think that mount is fixed or welded in place on the 2012...I will have to look again to be sure

leak
I am still getting leaks but can not find them with soapy water. Switched to 1/4" air brake line with compression fittings but tightened up crooked but no bubbles. Holds air but leaks out over night.

If it takes all night to leak down I wouldn't worry about it. I empty mine everytime I park.

I dump my air everytime I stop and when I'm done riding for the day. I have no leaks at all.

Air expands and contracts when its heated or cooled. When the air temp drops, the air contracts and you lose pressure. Just dump the air when parked and you'll never know the difference.

Btw, love the thread. I just got an Electra Glide last night and I think this is gonna be my 1st mod even though the bike is already lowered.
Also coolerman, I saw you're down around I40. Ive got family up in Dover. Love that area. My grandad had a big farm just over the border outside of Cadiz, Ky on the north border of Ft. Campbell.
