Most of the entries are very thorough, and I'm sure someone over there is running air ride with a DS tire. Just go by the tire size and look at all the RS guys' data. At least that's what I'd do if none of my Clinic Bros chimes in quickly! Hope you find your answer soon.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #508433 theGRINDER (User) NO REGRETS!

I think MS1700 has that setup and im hoping he will chime in... I dont think he has air ride however I swear I seen bigflip take a pic of just the subfender on when he did the rear wheel swap. I will give you a good idea of the space left over with the stock size wheel on the bike at least, best I can do.

I believe when darn had the issue, it was with is hitch down at the bottom of the frame, whickh your going to have to watch when you do the install. Glad you getting all the bugs worked out before we do mine. lol   Logged     http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l561/bogeydoctor/IMAG0512-1.jpg   The administrator has disabled public write access. #508476 TReynolds (User) If it isn't...It isn't Senior Boarder Posts: 315 Re:Darkside clearance 10 Months, 4 Weeks ago   I used that exact tire but unfortunatley I don't have any experiance with the air ride suspension. Hope someone can get you the info. When you do get it installed I know you will enjoy the ride, handling and longevity. Good luck!   Logged     2007 RoadStar XV1700   The administrator has disabled public write access.
