I am not sure.
OK, so I had an extensive ride on Sunday and I am happy to report.......The Legend Suspension is f'in awesome. I had to figure out my sweet spot and it is right around 60 psi with no load. I rode it with no air....it's like riding on struts...but looks cool as ****! I rode around 30 psi...it was cushy but would hit the stops. I am 6'2 350 pounds btw. at 60psi it was perfect. When I hit small road bumps or bridge/road joists there was no feeling of jarring or anything. When I hit potholes at highway speeds you felt the impact but it too was not that terribly hard. The air cushioned most of the impact. Now, I will tell you with the stock suspension, if I hit a pothole at speed I would feel it in my lower back....I felt NOTHING with the Legend suspension. I even took the same routes that I normally take to get an objective comparison. I rode for a good 4.5 hours and had no fatigue other than my butt being a lil uncomfortable...and that is riding a with the Harley Sidekick seat which has very little padding. All in all I am extremely impressed. I can have the low slung look I like while parked or cruising down during bike week....then I can air up and get the smooth comfortable ride you used to get with the old school Cadillac's and Oldsmobile 88's if you are old enough to remember those. Well worth the money...of which I saved about $200 by getting it from Eastern Performance
