Corbin Saddles was one of the first out of the blocks with a new product release for Harley ' s Pan America - one of the first anywhere with any kind of product . Within weeks it has come up with another application for Harley ' s ADV - replacing the stock
two-piece seat unit with a single piece base pan to provide a platform with a leaner , flatter profile . The ' Rally ' saddle is specifically made for those who also use their Pan America off-pavement and want more ability for body movement and aggressive riding . Notice how the company has eliminated the step to allow the rider to easily position their body further back when they need to lighten the front end . " We include a wide range of material , color and texture options for the saddle at no extra charge . It is seen here with Black Grabber seating , classic leather trim , matte black sides and black stitching . Grabber provides a rugged off-road look and grippy surface texture . This saddle is designed to work with the optional H-D saddlebags and trunk box - it mounts easily and integrates with the factory key lock ." Also seen here for the 2020 Indian Chief , Chief Bobber and Super Chief , the classically styled ' Brave ' saddle " provides the Chief with a fast , sporty look while providing excellent rider comfort . The smooth profile of the saddle matches that of the bike ,

American Suspension RAM AIR ' Fast Up ' with P-49 Air Shock
American Suspension says it is introducing " an amazing improvement for Harley Touring bikes . The patent pending Strategic Air Command system with P-49 air shock instantly gives the motorcycle a great air ride . " Everybody knows the problems caused by car shocks and air bags hooked to electric solenoids . The revolutionary Strategic Air Command system eliminates all those problems forever . Compare any other air shock to the American Suspension Strategic Air Command and you will never want to ride with any other air suspension system ." The P-49 air shock is said to combine " the precision road holding of a racing shock with the butter soft ride of luxury . Adaptive control valving combined with the use of the adjustable Strategic Air Command Module means that the American Suspension RAM AIR is remarkably easy to use and is genuinely plug and play . " Instead of littering multiple components about the
bike , RAM AIR incorporates everything into a single chunk of Made in the USA billet 6061-T6 - just attach two bolts and plug everything in and that ' s it , done . " As simple as the RAM AIR is to install , the inner workings of the P-49 involve multiple valving circuits to seamlessly transition the ride from a bumpy backroad to gliding down a smooth slab . The entire billet suspension unit is coated in our proprietary MOS2X coating . " MOS2X coating eliminates ' stickion ' and creates the slipperiest surface imaginable . This space age coating makes small bumps in the road seem to disappear . MOS2X is a surface engineering , tribological coating used on aircraft aluminum in specialized racing vehicles to reduce friction and ensure long life ." American Suspension says that this kit will also control its AR-70 front air ride conversion . The full kit includes the Strategic Air Command system , P-49 Thunderbolt air shock , RAM AIR SuperTanker with air pump with easy on billet mount and a plug and play ten-minute install wiring harness - plus a limited lifetime warranty . The kit is for 1989-2021 H-D Touring models .
