"PLANET BIKE SHOCKMATE SHOCK/SUSPENSION PUMP 400 PSI NEW"

Pay a few bucks more and go with a progressive 60 psi pump. 400 psi is over kill and you would need a magnafing glass to read 25 psi on that guage. :-/

One like this, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PROGR...item5d293be18b

I think I paid $50 for mine at a local dealer. Although I did have to go to two dealers to get one.

For the price, you can't lose.

PastorGumby - Let me know how it works out. Judging by the photo I think the gauge is marked in 10 lb. increments.

I purchased a ZLP at my local HD store for $25 that I use on my shocks. Looks just like that Progressive pump, just with a HD logo on it.

Over kill in size and costs. Progressive make a air pump apx 6 inches long and it looks like a big syringe. It has no gauge and fits in the nettting pocket in the saddle bag. About 3 strokes does it. These shocks are not like filling a foot ball.

I have no idea what the cost was on mine since i bought it on 99 for another bike I still have.

The Ebay progressive pump seems to work just fine! I put 20psi in both, and it definitely works!

For $10 - a great bargain!

Sale ends soon!
