Hey Guys, I'm considering one of these systems for my bike and am curious about the ride quality. Is it bouncy at all? My bike is lowered and I love the look but the ride could be better. Anybody that has had one of these systems for a while I would appreciate any feedback...good or bad. Thanks in advance!

With this system you can adjust ride height and firmness. So if you want it bouncy? You decide.

I like the ride. The ride is very adjustable. I'm light 150lb, but can be adjusted to ride with my wife.
Nice bike Blknchrome09deluxe

I do not want bouncy. I have heard complaints about air suspensions being bouncy but that was on a car. I'm looking to improve the ride quality on my bike and still have the lowered look. Wish someone near me had one to test out. I figured if there are any ride quality issues this would be a great place to get the lowdown.

I got my shotgun shock on my deluxe a few months ago and its the best thing i could ever due to my bike. The bike rides way better than stock and you can adjust it too many different setups. I ride slammed and it still has a decent ride. I would definantly recommend it to any of you guys and if your in and around socal definantly recommend going to JD and having him install it. Just my .02$

I also just got this system put on my Street Glide and would recommend it. One of the best air ride systems on the market.
