First time poster - GenIIK8 air ride

[MES392]

I think I've read every thread on it I could find but there is nothing recent and technology changes so fast I figure it wouldn't hurt to get some updated info

Thanks all!

Thanks for the info corey, looks like a nice set, I like your bike to btw (nice color) lol. Does it come with guages or anything, is there just a toggle switch that comes with the kit that raises and lowers it?

Also what is the difference and pros/cons of the systems that label themselves as air springs and not air shock/cylinder or whatever it is.

How much did it cost to get it installed? I live in Cincinnati and don't know of any speed shops around me

Thanks again

My system came with two toggles. One to raise it up and down and the other to set the comfort side of the cylinder that way I don't get a bounce or bottom out. The two gauges I bought separate and they are also for the up and down and one is the for the comfort side . That way I can tell where I have it set at. I also have the 1lb air bottle for the instant up. I just hit the up button and I don't have to wait it pops all the way up. The gauges were $172 a piece the bottle was $100 and the air ride was $972 I believe. A board member by the screen name of Bigrod330 install it all for $150. If you search his name he has a more detail description of his system.

I think some of the best frame sliders out there are from T- Rex racing. They are no cut and bolt on to your frame. I bought mine from the website for $100 but you can get them on eBay for $80-$90. I also have the custom dynamic orange Led's through out the bike. They came up to roughly $300

I got the fat a$$ all us men love lol. Winter projects consist of powder coating my wheels(330 rear and front) and also having an air ride installed , researched and researched probably going with a dapincci dual chamber as well, and will do the instant up mod later bc I dont want the shop screwing it up

oh and

I'm also more than happy to hear your guys thoughts on some other upgrades, mostly cosmetic wise that would make the bike pop even more. Maybe things you've seen on other bikes that you think might look good on this color scheme.

I'd love a big tire kit but that's some serious cash!

Smoked turn signals and tailight. Get the passenger pegs powdercoated black, and you can do the rider pegs too, or buy black aftermarket rearsets. Black clutch/brake levers.
