AirFX Air Suspensions - M-8
FXDR Softail Upgrade
Available through the collaboration between AirFX and
Hawg Halters, Jeff Schwindt, founder of Indiana based
AirFX, has developed a new performance AirFX air
suspension mono shock for the 2019 M-8 FXDR Softail
platform.
This new, patented mono shock features the proven
"AirFX, No Air Bag Design" in a specifically engineered
mono shock "that will deliver outstanding cornering
control, while reducing troublesome road feedback,"
according to Jeff.
The AirFX mono shock features a dual piston design
that increases the piston surface area, while reducing
the air pressure and volume required to lift the bike.
Each shock has two air chambers for lift and one for
rebound in axial alignment.
Robust spherical bearings are used in the upper and
lower pivot points to minimize pivot friction. As always,
this AirFX mono shock also allows for adjustable
rebound control by adding air to the shock through its
installed Schrader valve.
The AirFX mono shock is black hard coat anodized, has
adjustable rebound control, is rebuildable if ever
needed, offering a range of ride heights from stock to
low. "The efficient low operating pressure system
requires a smaller compressor than most and delivers
great reliability with a very fast lift time."
"The AirFX mono shock delivers a smoother ride, with
full suspension travel, increased handling performance,
greater durability, while maintaining a shock body size
equal to stock - no high pressure, just old fashioned
high suspension performance and handling," says Jeff.
