Left bag is 2" off the dirt with air out.  How low do you wanna go?  Aired up I am 1/2" higher than a stock RG.  The bike will go lower but. .... you wanna still get home if your air system breaks, any lower and the bike will not move without air... and yes it happens.  I did it once. ... long 2 hour ride!!!  But I got home. After that I have extra air lines and tools where ever I go!!!

On a side note. ..I have had bilstien shocks, progressive 944(non air), Arnot Aldeans, and 2 sets of the Monroe shocks that Puzzled sells. ...Monroes ate the ONLY air shocks to have.

I've chased the dream. .$1,000.00 doesn't mean they are better.

How is the handling of the bike with the 40dg trees. You hear on a lot of other forums about a high speed wobble when you don't cut the neck

These are not just trees. . look at his web sight or call them and they will explain it.

I've riden 2 up over 110 with no issues. . til I got smacked in the back of the head!!!!!

Solo im always a nitwit. . Over 110 and buried the needle..I only did it to provide proof my bike was stable and very very safe. Now 100 is it. . for the most part :orange:

The Kewl metal pro street kit is more than just trees. It is a complete neck kit. The kit nets the same result as cutting the neck without cutting your bike. The neck angle is changed than the trees are added.

I've ridden Rich's bike as hard as I could without dragging his bags. Without hesitation I'd run this setup if i were going with a 26"

Thanks for the info and input. That sounds like the direction that I'm going to be heading this winter. When I get started I'm sure I'll be picking your guys brain some more. I have tons of questions.
