Legend Suspension has released a coil over shock called the REVO, in both "regular" duty and "heavy (over 400lbs of riders and gear).  You can take a look at them here:  http://www.legendsuspensions.com/Motorcycle/

They are also producing a new back lighted gauge for the fairing...comes in several colors too.

I also have it on good authority that they are now testing and will soon be producing an improved version of their already good air suspension system.  The one complaint most people have had with the Legend Air Ride was they actually ride better with a load on them...like two up, at least...Solo, it was harder to get that sweet spot.  They improved that last year with a larger Kevlar reinforced boot for the shock which provides more volume and helps absorb those sharp edged bumps in the road.  They are further improving this shock with a fully adjustable REBOUND DAMPENING adjustment!!  My understanding at this point is that there will be five clicks of adjustment.  They are still tweaking things a bit and doing some real world testing with different customers who have owned their system in the past (they have enough testers on the road, so don't need any more).

As I receive further details and technical information, I will post that information here with edits.  Initial results are extremely promising, and will provide yet another great choice for those who like the on the fly adjustment of the Legend Air Ride, and/or want the "slammed" look when parked, or need to be able to lower the bike easily when parking due to being "vertically challenged (short inseam)", like me.

More good choices in suspension components is always a good thing, and Legend Suspension is built for riders, by riders.  Great company to do business with if their products meet your needs.

And no, I am not affiliated with them whatsoever...I'm just passing on information because I like their product and their customer service.

Terry, I think the Revo has been out for a little while - not sure how long exactly.  As for the air shocks that is my info also.  I can attest that when set properly for two-up they ride like chit solo - have to let some air out for sure when going from two-up to solo.  Looking forward to what they release in their new improved version.

I'm glad to see they've improved their selection of air pressure gages. Their older gages were oil-filled but did not have back lighting. Are any of the new gages oil-filled with back lighting?
