Default air adjustable shocks

The owners manual says to use an air gauge that doesn't release air when setting the air pressure in the rear shocks. I can't find such a gauge anywhere. What do ya'll use when for this task ?

Welcome to the forums....

I don't believe there is such a thing. What they should have meant to say is, lose as little air as possible when checking air.

Just use a regular gauge man. And try to lose as little air as possible. You will only lose maybe 1/8 lb at most....

Enjoy your stay.

Go to the .... I can't believe I'm saying this .... Harley Dealership, and look for a suspension air pump, it will cost you about $40. That is the best piece of ride adjustment equipment I own! It will allow you to add or release air in very small increments, like 2.5 PSI at a time, or something like that. It will solve all your issues with adding or adjusting air pressure. You can get other brands, but believe it or not, the Harley one is the least expensive in most cases, and is a quality piece of equipment. Hope this helps!
