Made a bracket for the valve and ran the air lines through that unused hole in the frame.

Nice job. Looks clean with the seat on.

That stuff is great. The FuelMoto harness came with that, except for the last 6" or so. There are some fat connectors on the ends and I don't think I can pull that loom over them.

Yes and it also equalizes the pressure to both shocks. I mounted the
schrader under the battery cover....

Get split loom, you don't need to pull over connectors.

Glad to help! Check car places like Jegs and Summit Racing for best selection; there's a bunch of types in all colors and sizes.

I raised my gas tank so I could reach in to get to the wires I was working on. When I put it back together and tightened it up I was like, "Good, this is done." Ha ha, I'll be at it again.

What did I do to my Sporty today? Moved it out of the way to have more room to work on another bike.
