There's a sucker born every minute.......


Only use HD certified air or you will void your warranty.
Available in a 4 season variety pack.

I recommend checking what the tire states on the sidewall. It has a max rating when checked cold. I run about 3 lbs. under that rating on both tires.

cHarley the dealer was all out of that HD certified air that's the reason I went there. So I decided to use the nitrogen instead. Besides 4000 miles in 13 days on my road trip I did not want to take chances.
