So my question is what psi do you guys typically run solo? What ever the psi from the dealer is sucks. I am 210 lbs at 5'10" and I always bottom out on the freeway with the smallest dips. I was gonna check/fill them but then a friend mentioned not to use my air compressor because I might blow out the line. He said Harley makes a hand pump for them, what do you guys think? Also what psi do you run with a passenger, my lady is right around 125 lbs? Thanks for the help.........

I agree you dont want to use your aircompressor it will blow out the shocks. Trust me i did it. Just bite the bullet and go by the hand pump. Also look in your book for the max pressure. Just adjust it up about 5lbs at a time until you find that feeling you are looking for.

 

Try 20psi...good starting point...and the gauge is worth it's weight in petrol

 

Is that 20 psi solo? The harley chart is saying 10 psi up to 200lbs?

i run 15 psi for solo

 

I typically run 22 psi alone or with my girl. The handpump (for the harley...) is worth the money!

 

I am running 10 solo and 15 with passenger

 

18 psi...I am 210lbs

 

I run zero psi in my shocks,but then again there in a progressive box sitting on a shelf.Springs were good in 1903 and i must say mine work great in 2008, air is for tires.......

 

10 PSI solo 195 lbs

15 2 up 195 + 135 lbs
