I was thinking of putting air shocks on my Tourer. I would like to have air pump also so I can adjust on the go. Any comments on what make i should go with?

My GW GL1100 manual says to have the bike up on it's center stand when adjusting the air presure.

What was your thought, grab an old GL system with presure sensor and gauges buttons, or just take a small portable air compressor and when stopped fill to a PSI.

I used Progressive 416's for many years and used a little Walmart $10.00 12 volt pump.  Usually ran 35 PSI when alone and up to 80 PSI two up, bags loaded and with trailer attached.  Never was a problem!
