Yes, LA_Dog has been tracking reported gearing changes, including his own, and has reported that a 70T pulley seems to barely fit and still allow mounting of the tire and proper adjustment of belt tension. However, it is CLOSE, and tolerances of both the bike and the belt do vary, and so the usual disclaimer applies: your results MAY vary, and if they do, please don't complain that you were misled!

All you have to do is measure your available free axle slot - if you have at least 5/8" of potential forward slot movement then you're good to go. Some guys have reported up to 7/8". Even if it is a tight fit to put the axle back through the slots with the 70t that is ok, you will still be able to adjust to proper belt tension and wheel alignment. See the sticky DIY gear ratio thread at top of this softail forum for more info, pics etc.

After I set my rebound, I firm up the ride. You can hear the pitch of the compressor change as more pressure builds up. Eventually, I don't hear the pitch change anymore. I think at this point the compressor is maxxed out and will not increase the pressure. I never timed how long I've kept it on, but it was a pretty long time and it didn't get "hard as a rock". It's very spongy at best.
Hell, I ran the ride height all the way to the top last time we rode together jut to keep it off the hard stops. No rebound at all.
Not to be nosey, but when you ride 2up, how much is the total weight? Between the OL and I it's over 400lbs.

Someone should discuss this with JD. If the 200psi compressor happens to be the final "works as designed" solution for ABS equipped bikes this might be a show stopper for all wanting to install SS to make also 2-up riding more comfy 
Maybe we open a separate thread on this to have more people chiming in...

Got my Breakout back from my indie shop guy. Did cams, air cleaner, pipes, tune, and the 30T primary (I think that's what he started with, he ordered everything). Waiting on seat (damnit Le Pera, hurry up) and bars.
List of what I'd like:
LED Headlight, preferably 7" somehow, not the Daymaker
LED Turn signals
Foot pegs that don't scrape as much
Fuel gauge
Maybe Shotgun shocks, I don't find the stock very bad so far though
Maybe new mirrors depending on how they look on the new bars
Heated gloves or heated grips, can't decide
Any advice would be appreciated

I have a 70ci 4500psi tank with an adjustable low pressure regulator that I use for paintball. It has a push to connect macroline set up with an on-off valve already. I'm still in Natchez for the weekend but I'll put some pics up when I get back. As soon as I found out that the ABS models didn't produce over 200psi, I knew I was going to put that tank on it to stiffen the ride. Just wish I could modify the compressor so I don't have to hook that tank up for riding 2-up. And I don't want to adjust anything while I don't have access to a tank to set it back for the ride home.
