Received my Shotgun shocks last week and just installed them. Best bang for you buck air ride available IMO and they've made it so bloody easy to install. Took some photos for anyone interested in upgrading to an air ride.
Nice one piece unit and big compressor
Simple harness with molex connectors and heat shrink ready to go
Compressor with attached bracket just simply bolts under transmission with 2 bolts
Shocks are designed to drop down 90 degrees for transmission oil changes.
Shocks installed
Plug in one air line and connectors just plug in and shrink wrap over for complete seal.
Finally switch installed on horn bracket.
Been raining heaps here so haven't had a chance to test the system out properly, but it does raise & drop the bike quite quickly. Firmness can be adjusted to bouncy to almost stiff as a rigid.
Looks like a neat setup, do the shocks hang below or above the frame rails, would be great to see in action as I would be interested in a set of Shotgun Shocks.
Hi all...Nice setup Wallah.
A quick question...When the suspension is raised and lowered,Does the suspension become softer when lowered and harder when raised ????.
Hi all...Thanks for takeing the time to answer Wallah.They sound like what im after.Keep us updated on these shocks.
Awesome Wallah - sent you a PM.
Hey Wallah....... Where did you bolt the relay?
just what i need for a bad back. good informative post thanks
Peter Stevens gave me a price on the Shotguns a month ago - $1800 !!! At the same time, Shotgun directly from the US was $1430 USD. Go figure !!!
Hey Wallah, how did you get your shocks, i mean how did you order them? I'v ee-mailed JD in the States twice, and he hasn't replied, do i need like a secret hand shake or pass word or something? I needs me a set of these shocks man. All reports ive read say they are the Rolls Royce of shocks. I'v even been on the US forum asking questions. I gots to get my Fatty riding comfy for my fat arse. Cheers man
Anybody know were I can get my Shot-Guns serviced..
One side don;t hold pressure, thinking O ring or similar. I guess service or repair. Any help would be great, maybe an Australian dealer / distributor if anyone knows... Thany-u
If you have a problem with the unit JD will not let you down. Even tho the shock has. Seriously, He has in other situations sent out a new replacement almost immediately. I had mine upgraded at no cost. You have nothing to worry about.
JD is very quick on answering any problems.
