If you get a chance post some pictures.

I've got one of those on my Classic.  I added a gauge to make it easy to check the pressure.  Works great if you use the right stuff (no air leaks).  Sorry, no pics available.

I just bought a kit that will let you inflate both shocks at the same time. Got a nice bicycle pump with a built in pressure gauge.

kept the removed parts in my tool kit and the pump fits in the bags.

Painted mine black.

i weight 250 lbs....i have my 99 1500 shocks set on 4 and 50lbs of air in the rear shocks.
make sure you use the right hand pump to air up the rear shocks....i bought my pump from a local harley dealer for $50.00.

good luck and ride safe
