I use a bicycle air pump, it has a gauge on it.
It clips on the valve, no air loss when removed.
I will save the money that the Harley pump costs and put it towards some better shocks someday.

Damn!! I just went through this yesterday. riding 2 up with the OL and could feel it was getting a little bumpy. Thought... hummm.. shocks might need air added. Ran by the dealer, parts guy is like here ya go bud. I say how much, he's like umm, $52 bucks, I'm like PASS! Ridiculous price. It's like $25 for the pump and $25 for the HD logo! AND.... They still got me for $50 bucks. Wife liked a shirt while we were there.... Arrrrr! LOL!

The Fox air pump has all the features of the HD pump, available through any Arctic Cat or Yamaha snowmobile dealer for about $34 USD. Always someone upgrading thier shocks on a sled - could probably look in a sled parts section on e-bay or craigslist. There are two types available - one from 0 to 150 psi, and one from 0-300 psi.
