They recently introduced their Ultimate Ride system for 1990 to 2017 Harley-Davidson Touring bikes. At the core of this unit are two nitrogen-charged FOX shock absorbers with custom valving. This is com- bined with Arnott's TruAIR technology that utilizes a rugged air-spring bladder. The kit includes Goodyear air spring sleeves, a small but powerful compressor with vent solenoid, a handlebar-mount activation switch, all necessary tubing, a fused wiring harness and relay assembly, cable ties, fi ttings, chrome bolt covers, mounting accessories and instructions. The Ultimate Ride System is available in two versions, with rebound adjustment for $1,599 and without rebound adjustment (height adjustment only) for $1,399. Both are offered in either chrome or black and are complemented by a limited lifetime warranty. Arnott Inc. 800.251.8993 arnottairsuspension.com Slide-in performance Cartridge tube front-end inserts are one of the latest products to take center stage in the motorcycle world. The recently-developed AXEO Front Suspension Kits for the Harley-Davidson Dyna is one of the newest. This kit covers all 2006 to present Dyna models except for the FXDWG and FXDF. This direct replacement install includes two mono-tube, dual-chambered damper cartridges along with internal fl oating piston nitrogen chambers and machined 303 stainless pre-load adjusters.

Designed for standard 49mm models only, this package comes fully charged with Maxima Racing Oil along with an additional quart of oil for future changes and carries a lifetime warranty for $750. Legend Suspensions legendsuspensions.com Curbing the clatter An open primary is cool looking but can rattle like a handful of bolts in a coffee can. The new Enclosed Primary Drive for Softail, FXR and Shovelhead Models by Belt Drives Limited tames the racket by not only housing the kit inside the stock primary but, being manufactured with Kevlar on round-dog alu- minum plates, the company's new "Quiet Clutch" signifi cantly reduces clutch rattle. A unique- ly-designed clutch basket carries 12 cylindrical (and replaceable) clutch dogs that provide silky clutch engagement, enhanced performance and longevity. Each kit comes with a billet aluminum pressure plate secured by nine shoulder bolts with specially-de- signed springs, a BDL Kevlar belt and a sealed bearing for the inner primary.
