    Using that selinoid check valve. In the air line is pretty slick , no tank needed ,,cool 👍 👍

      Makes it super compact and if you use a good compressor the air up time is rather quick even without a tank

    Thanks for the video. Im doing an old school kawasaki bobber build and im wondering how many full lifts i could get out of 1 pre-filled 200psi tank that is between 1 and 1.5 gallon size. Its kind of a rat build and i think it would look cool with just a plain tank no compressor. I understand you might not have the answer to that though.

      I do have an answer and possibly a solution look at nitrogen tanks it's higher pressure but it will last u a long while u just have to regulate it down and u csn find super small nitrogen tanks on ebay or Amazon fill them yourself and last a long while. Shop air at 200 isn't going to last long it will eventually equalize down id say maybe 1 or 2 till u notice a weird balance u will also have to install a fill valve if u have gone that far already just step into nitrogen. Bike sounds killer I love the old kawasakis u can swap awing arms over from the cruiser pretty easily for like 6 in length more if you ever needed to

      I just looked online 1.5 gallon nitrogen tank lowest I saw was 85$ lots of shapes and options look at the higher pressure side more bang for buck and some can hold liquid nitrogen u could ride all reason farting with that up and down

      @@SonofaFink all great advice! I was thinking of fabricating my own swingarm so it will look like a hardtail at first glance. 6-8 inch stretch. Weld some feet onto the frame so I can just lay frame when I park it 😎. Might run air lines to the forks and put in a very light fork spring so I can drop the front all the way down too

      @@SonofaFink guess I never gave it any thought either but when I seen cars or bikes with air ride, I guess I just naturally thought it was complicated... idk? Lol

      It used to be more complicated in the 90s when the valves were being developed u can use this same valve off a tank to fill air too systems have gotten so much easier over the years and compressors keep getting smaller and better.
