    Air pressure VS. Tire wear

    I notice, many folks suggest, and are - running 22lbs (or so) of air pressure in the rear wheel - to make it a "better" ride. I'm sue it would soften out the bumps, but what about the tire wear on the rear. I am certain, if the correct pressure is not maintained - cupping, side, or middle...

    Air pressure in shocks - how long does it last

    On average - how long do your shocks stay pressurized ?
  16. Thomas L

    Solve an argument

    I say, No air in tghe triglide shocks will make it a harder ride - that shocks that have an air pressure. OR - zero air pressure is a worst ride than say 35 lbs.

    Sh+t - Shocks.

    My shocks will not hold pressure. (No wonder the ride is so hard) I am overwhelmed at the price of replacement shocks. (No more air, thank you) Probably Progressive shocks. I wonder, are shocks covered under warrenty > (2016 Tri-Glide )
