Arnott Air Suspension

So here it is. I've got the Arnott Air system installed on my low rider ST this is a really cool system. I'm really happy with it. Obviously, it's got a great shock. It's made by Fox. Uh and it has an onboard air compressor. So the compressor, at least on this low rider ST is actually stashed right down there. Actually, I got a chrome one too. So if you do see it, it looks pretty cool. And then the only thing we have up here for controls is I have a little handlebar mount switch right there and a bar button switch and that makes for easy operation. You can air down whenever you need to or air back up. I got the buttons right here in the handlebars so I can adjust it on the fly to whatever ride, softness, firmness, ride height or whatever adjustments I want to make can all be done right on the fly, right as I'm riding down the road actually. So it's a really great versatile system, especially if you're into maybe going, doing bike nights and then maybe you want to travel, maybe you have a passenger sometimes, maybe you don't. Or if you're like me, I like sport riding. I love to do Canyon carving. So I want the rear end to generally be firm and nice and tall for that. That way I get good handling on the bike. But my daily commuting is here in Northeast Ohio where we have tons of potholes so I can air down a little bit for that. Get a nice soft ride that way. My back's not dislocated from all the potholes and dips and bumps around here and then I can just air back up when I find some fun roads to hit. And it's great too because I like to travel. Sometimes the bags are loaded. Sometimes my wife rides on the back. Sometimes I'm just by myself and the bags are empty. So super versatile system also super easy to install. All I really had to do was mount up the compressor, run the wires and pop the shock in there. It was super easy to do. Almost anybody can do this with pretty much basic hand tools. So one of the other great things about this ar not air system is no matter how much weight I put in the saddle bags, how much stuff I have crammed in here or even if I have a passenger on the back, I can just air up accordingly. That keeps my suspension correct. So my handling is still good and I don't get the rear end dive. Now, obviously, you can crank your preload springs up on your stock suspension. But then when it's unloaded, you're, you know, back to having a, a real rough ride there, especially when you hit potholes. But with the RNA system, the buttons are right here on the handlebar, I can adjust it on the fly for whatever system or whatever ride, whatever leveling thing I may want to use. You know, one of the grapes I hear from the shorter riders or even people that just like their bike lowered because they like that stance is once you lower the bike, it barely has any lean to it once it's sitting on the kick stand. So you have to be really careful as to where you park the thing because obviously you don't want to park it on a slight angle because the bike could be prone to falling over. So the cool thing about the Arnot system is if you have to park it on a little bit of a hill or it's a little bit weird, you can just air up the rear shock a little bit and boom, you got more lean to your kick stand. This thing's not going anywhere now, so it's nice and stable no matter where you park it. And of course you could hop on it, air it back down to right where it was and you're still looking cool or ready to go ride whatever works best for you. One of the things I really like about the system is the ability to air it down and then the bike is easier to maneuver around when parking it, especially in tight spots or anything you got back it into on the street. This system is really great for metropolitan areas, especially when you're dealing with a lot of patches in the road potholes and just pavement transitions. This is really great because you can adjust it on the fly, smooth it out for where it needs to be smoother at and firm it up for when the situation calls for it. It's a quality system too. The shop are made by Fox. You know, they're going to last, you know, it's not just going to be some import garbage like this will last you for a lot of miles and a lot of years on your motorcycle. In addition to being able to adjust your ride for the comfort level, you want, you can also adjust your ride height. So therefore you can chase after that. Cool look you want, if you want the DNA bro back and lift it up in the air look, boom, hit the button and make it happen. You want it lower down and have that low rider look, hit the other button, make it happen or even somewhere in the middle. And this allows you to have that cool look while your bike is parked and then adjust it accordingly. That way your ride is still ridable. Because we all love custom motorcycles, but it's even better when you can actually ride the thing.
