I have had my Harley pump for 10 years and it still works great.

I sprung for the Harley Touring Suspension Air Pump (model 54630-03A) not knowing there was a cheaper aftermarket pump available. Mine was $49.95 at the HD dealership (HD is proud of it). It works well and does exactly what it was designed to do. The no-leak feature works perfectly and the pressure release button makes it convenient for fine tuning the amount of air in the shocks. The guage goes up to 60 psi. The max pressure on my Ultra Classic is 50 psi. The pump's small footprint makes it easy to stow and carry on the bike for when its needed. I add about 15 psi when my wife rides with me. It makes a noticeable difference in the way the bike handles and rides. Wouldn't want to be without one.

What psi do you guys ride at for solo riding? I riding around 12 psi, does that sound right? Seems to be working fine for me.

Edited:

Check service manual, for 2005 Road King, 12 lbs is just right for my weight. I guess it depends on the year and type of shocks.

If the pump criteria meets what 2011FLHTK posted earlier it will work just fine. I do use the HD hand pump and it does works well. Why waste 25.00 worth of time hunting for something that may work.

While I agree everything is overpriced these days i'm happy with the harley pump. it is durable and works great. a zero loss connection is nice too $24k invested in bike $50 for pump that works flawless no brainer.
