    I’ve been considering these shocks for almost 4yrs. The whole system makes sense to me. I’ve watched the TH-cam videos and just haven’t pulled the trigger yet, mostly due to cost. I’m not a fan of the stock suspension (who is… Rochelle?????) as it just lacks in all aspects. Well Mr Brooks, your thoughts have helped. I will save my Pennie’s and come next winter get the bikes both set up. Thanks my friend! The was the best HTJ video ever without music! LOL

  • @whatsstefon

    The only thing adequate about Harley suspension is the acceptance of the worst suspension of any motorcycle I’ve ever owned. That includes my old Royal Enfield Classic 500. That handled better than a stock Harley. My Sporty has Hagons but if I keep it a bit longer I might upgrade further. We shall see.
    This system is almost akin to the old Citroen self levelling pneumatic system system they used for decades.
