antitech1:
I intend to get those ram396 adjustable links one day. Right now, I did the flip & grind but 2" is a bit too low for me. I am not too intersted in the air ride cause from what I hear you should only use two settings. One for riding and one for parking and Im not interested in slamming it to the ground when its parked.
The belt needs to be adjusted each time you adjust the hieght. It will tighten when you lower it. Its not good for your belt or front pully if you run the bike at different hieghts without making belt adjustments. Thats what I read anyway.
True enough - when parked with the air out Air ride (atleast our air ride) the bike will sit quite low to the ground. But it's not just two settings, it's a fully adjustable ride height at any "setting" you want. As for the belt it only needs to be adjusted once at mid ride height. The belt will slacken, not tighten, when you drop low, but not so much that it's dangerous in any way. When we invented our product in 1999 we did the majority of our R&D with the Yamaha Cruisers, we haven't had a belt issue in 10 years!
Anyway... just my 2 cents...
Droppin' Down Low since 1999...
