#111584 toosons (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 5 air ride 3 Months, 1 Week ago   Who has the best air ride kit for a Road Star?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #111595 CoachDan (User) I'm Mechanically Inclined, I Screw Up Everything. Expert Boarder Posts: 594 Re:air ride 3 Months, 1 Week ago   Hey toosons Here's a couple that I've been eyeballing myself. I'll put several miles a day on mine at times, and want a softer ride when I need it. Most air rides will give you a pogo effect. So, I'm more inclined to go with the one in the second link. Drop Top Caddy here was offering a do-it-yourself kit very reasonable if you can weld. I think he also offered to make a bolt on. His was like the second link. Clifford also could probably save you a few bucks.

Expert Boarder Posts: 594 Re:air ride 3 Months, 1 Week ago   Hey droptop How do you think one like yours would work pulling a trailer? I think it would handle the extra weight OK, but do you think it would allow anymore side movement? My trailer weighs 350 lbs before gear.   Logged     http://rainbowgymnastics.net/Coach_Dans_Bike_Page.htm   The administrator has disabled public write access. #111767 MikeyD (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 40 Re:air ride 3 Months, 1 Week ago   I've seen the one on the second link before, but I can't figure out what it is suppoosed to bolt to. Has anyone on here installed this style? Every other air kit looks like the one on the first link. A system that replaces the shock/spring assembly. I figure this leads to a real springy ride.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #111812 toosons (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 5 Re:air ride 3 Months, 1 Week ago   What about Barons   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #111961 droptopcaddy (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 70 Re:air ride 3 Months, 1 Week ago   oh yea would handle any weight you wanted to put on it,,i think its rated at 1500 or 2000 lb bag lol,,,i can put extra air in the bag and it works like a hard tail if ya wanted it too lol,,,the kit he offer bolts to the swing arm and rest on the bottom round bar the other piece bolts right under the seat and the bottom part looks to rest against the tranny thats the only thing i question about his kit,,,may not ever have a problem but who knows,,, thats the only way to make it bolt ont hat i can see thou,,,   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #112016 hardone2get (User) Just ride would ya! Expert Boarder Posts: 529 Re:air ride 3 Months, 1 Week ago   When someone here truly sets their bike up with an air ride system I'm with Coach Dan I would like to know how well it works. We both pull trailers and there are times I could use the extra suspension and then other times I want to be able to have a softer ride.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
