air shocks with on bike compresson

liferider

Looking forward to retirement
I have replaced my softtail shocks twice now, and am looking at doing it again. Talked to my mechanic the other day about what he has on his bike. It's basically an manuel auto ride system. The compressor is about 3/4 the size od a tennis ball and is hidden by your starter. The controler to air ride shocks is on a mount that goes on a rocker box bolt. does anyone have this system and if so or has had it what are there thoughts on it.

Ok hopefully you sent the shocks back to WORKs performance shocks.com this is the company that rebuilds and built your shocks, they also cost 175. For a rebuild then 800 for new. Secound raise the bike up.... The lower the bike the farther out the shock piston is and that can cause a lot of leaks and other damage if your just not riding on the frame now. I weigh 240, (solid muscle) of course! Ok not really. :( I lifted the bike as far up as it will go with the adjustable shocks, should have done it years ago! Also I know this didn't answer shit.... But hey, you hopefully learned something new if you didnt. :)

I understand, I was at 230lb last June in this pic. I am now at 245lb with 1.25'' bigger arms and 2'' in the chest. I powerlift 4 days a week and cardio 3. Bitch is what I did this morning 100 skull crushers on a flat bench using a 70lb curl bar and you only get 2-12 second breaks. try it, you'll hate it!!!!

Send the shocks back to works. I've dealt with them numerous times from my motocross days.Tell them you've had some problems with them they should fix you up. PS skull crushers suck but good for them tri's:cheers:
