Description

We love “new” here at Fix My Hog. Not just shiny and new but better and new! Arnott air suspension asked us to check out their new Ultimate Ride Series suspension kit and we think it’s pretty kick-ass. Here it is all laid out on the table for you to see.

About New Suspension:

Arnott released two new lines of adjustable motorcycle air suspension

Smooth Ride Series is an economical line of height adjustable air shocks for touring models as well as many older and less expensive bikes. Provides a sporty, stock like, ride

New Ultimate Ride Series features Fox dampers with optional rebound adjustment knobs and provide a comfortable, luxurious, ride that is superior to stock and other add on shocks

Features:

Arnott’s TruAIR Technology combines Fox dampers with multi-ply Goodyear air springs using a patents-pending design

Superior to your stock low pressure air assisted shocks, air cylinder and canister shocks or those low-tech shocks designed for automobiles

Includes a powerful on-board compressor and handlebar mounted inflation switch

Comes with high-quality mounting accessories and everything you need for a fast flawless installation like more than enough tubing and wiring, a distribution valve, relay and fuse, detailed instruction manual, color coordinated bolt covers and even split loom to protect the air lines.

Kits are custom designed for each motorcycle make and model. For example they are engineered with the same shock travel as the stock shocks and come with an application specific compressor mounting bracket

Benefits:

Backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty in North America and Europe which covers the entire system for as long as you own your bike

Up to 3” of shock travel adjustability so you can quickly lower your bike for stopping, parking or for that slammed look.

But if you forget to air up the shocks – you can still ride it. Since they use the same shock travel as the OE the shocks are designed to not let the fender touch the tire

Arnott air suspension shocks also almost eliminate painful bottoming as long as you have air in the shock’s air bladders

But the most important benefit is the improved ride comfort and safety. Arnott air shocks keep your rear wheel on the pavement and smooth out bumps like railroad tracks and washboard roads – regardless of how much weight is on the bike

Hey everybody, it's Mike with fix my hog. I wanna go over a new product line here from Arnott cycles. And when I say new, they're not new to the industry they've been doing motorcycle suspension for about 15 years you know, on a system like this used to be kind of exclusive to a custom bike or a chopper. So about 15 years ago, that was the rage. You know, everybody put this on there, they'd slam the bike on the ground, but after a while everybody figured out it's not very fun to ride your chopper to Montana. You know, so now for about the last five or six years the waves kind of been turning towards baggers and they'd been customizing baggers out, tricking them out, slamming them on the ground. But if you put a 11 inch shock on your touring bike and then you throw your significant other on the back with a tour pack and try to go to Milwaukee for the weekend, it doesn't ride so nice. So that's kind of where this suspension like this comes into play. So here's the deal. You can load up your bagger you throw everybody on it, all your gear and now you can adjust the suspension to where you want it. Go ride your motorcycle for 500 days and not feel like you been beat up. You know? So it's, it's pretty nice set up. Here we got to stock Oh 08 ultra classic. They come with a 13 inch shock. And if you look at some of the newer CVOs or the street glides, they all come with a 12 inch shock. You take away that one inch and the bike really rides not very desirable. And after 30 to 50,000 miles on these bikes they get pretty clapped out. So the nice thing about this is you got your custom bike or your bagger it's all tricked out. You wanna get that slam look you can drop it down on the ground. Or like I say, when you wanna improve the ride quality you basically just bump it up to where you want it and where it feels good. The handling isn't effected. You know, anytime you put a lowered shock on a bagger and then you try and ride the thing aggressively in a corner, it gets all choppy. This way you'll be able to compensate with it at any time just adjust it to wherever you like. The other nice thing is when you order this kit it's a complete kit. It comes with everything you need. I don't know if you've ever experienced this when you order a kit from Harley, you know you order the kit, you get it and then all sudden you realize, Oh wait a minute, see this, you got to order this part number, this part number, this part number. You don't have to do that. They're located right in Merritt Island, Florida. They got a 300,000 square foot facility. And the nice thing about it is you go on their website they've got the manuals there, you get a manual with it. And if you have a problem with it, they've got a tech line pick up the phone, give them a call. They wanna help you with their product. Now that's a True Air technology combines Fox dampers with multiplied Goodyear air Springs, you know and the really nice thing about it is it's got up to three inches of shock travel adjustability. So you can quickly lower the bike for parking for that slam look. Another nice feature on this is, you know if you're forget to air up the shocks you can still ride the motorcycle. You know, they use the same shock travel as the OEM shocks and it's designed not to let the fender touch the tire. Hey, like I said Arnott motorcycle suspension has been around for 15 years, good quality product. You know, they're backed by a limited lifetime warranty here in North America and Europe, which covers the entire system for as long as you own the bike. I really encourage you to go online and check out everything Arnott has to offer.
