Default New Air Dragger shocks from Progressive?

Hi all. I just got my new copy of the J&P catalog and while leafing thru saw that Progressive Suspension has a new set of bagger shocks called Air Dragger shocks. Somewhat reasonable prices. Anybody know about or have seen these yet?

from their website:
is powered by a clever compressor unit that uses a hook and loop style fastener to mount into the back of a saddlebag.
so their system runs about a grand, and it velcros to your saddlebag? not sure how i feel about that....

Yah, if I was in the market for these, I think I might get the PS shocks and get my own compressor, or use the compressor and push buttons that Arnott sells.

Good point! I wonder if the PS shocks are more like Arnotts $698 shocks or their $999 shocks?

I am actually working to do that very thing. I did get the PS compressor but did not mount it in the bag. I mounted under the right side cover where the ABS stuff would have been had I gotten my bike with abs. But i am talking to Arnott about using their compressor and switch. I like their set up better.

Progressive is in the shock business. They would be crazy not to get into the air ride business. This is new and may be a great produce. I went with Arnott that has a proven history of a good produce and costumer service. I will be interested to see the member and publication reviews on this system. Meantime I will be slammin with Arnott.
