The original poster does on his first post. check it out, and shows the kit as well.
If I didn't already have the Progressive kit I'd buy this one for sure( I may still

) and replace mine with it. Nice kit and decent price. It would be an easy install and makes a huge difference having both shocks balanced and makes sure they are ;)

does this make it easier to reach the schrader valve ... meaning, would i still need to remove the seat to put air in....

looks like a great kit;)

I'd say it depends on the seat you have. My Mustang seat sits right over the Schrader valve. Too close to get an air chuck on it. Can't even remove/install the valve cap with the seat on it.

It would be nice if it could be angled downward 45° or even 90°.

DaBull and CactusJack,
I'm working on an optional design that won't require removing the seat. ;)

Thanks for the question, and thanks to everyone for the positive feedback, and those who have let me know of specific aftermarket seat issues.

When I get everything together, I'll start a new thread with new pics.

Let me know when you do. I have the progressive air balance kit and it is a bit of a pain. I've looked around here for the parts like your kit has to change mine around some using the existing hardware and no luck :(
And I'd like to do as another member did and add a gauge to mine as well. Thinking of setting it up to run from the rear (below trunk) and have a gauge there and fill valve under the bracket for the trunk. This would be the easiest to fill and verify pressure from.
Looking forward in what you come up with about the changes.

Currently, I include 24" of hose in my kits. Do you think n 48" length will be enough for the new kit? I want to allow for flexibility in installation without too much waste.
Thanks-JAY,

ve3hzz · 03-15-2011, 09:48 AM

Jay yes I think that would be more then enough for moving it to locations on the bike some may want (such as mine) you could always ask those who order one what length they require. Some may just say the longest.LOL..but many would understand costs and if only require the smaller amount would be fine with that. But I think the amount you are considering would be more then enough for most custom applications. Just my .02 on that.
