Anybody running the air shocks on an Interstate? I just put some 412HD on my bike and was bottoming out on #4 setting. I talked to justin at progressive and he made me a deal on some 416s to help with the problem. I had returned the 412s to them to have them checked out. They could find nothing wrong with them or the HD springs.I just don't understand the 412 as I only weigh about 265lbs. I can't spring for the 440 right now but the 416s I can swing. Anyone running the air now.

In my humble opinion, which doesn't have much value in it.

I'd save the penny's for the 440's........................

I have a Tourer, that as long as I ride solo, I can get buy with the 412 shocks.........

I add the SO and with my weight, we hit bottom most the time with the 412's.

Right now I have the 416's set on 4 and if, I hit a hole big enough, she will bottom out with both of us....

Since the SO quit riding I'm sticking with the 416's.  I was looking to change to the 440's when she decided to stop riding and let the grandkids ride instead.

Dad gum that is wordy.....

Had 412's, took em off put on 416's, was going to 440's next.

Mom quit riding so I am with the 416's now.  Work fine with this ole 270# fart.
