REAR SUSPENSION

[Harley]

I have a 2012 RT performance with the manual air suspension and it keeps losing air pressure. Is this normal, and how often should it be checked ? I aired it up last evening, and it had lost about 20 lbs. overnight. Just sitting in the garage.. Thanks for any info.:dontknow:

That ain't normal... :gaah: Mine "only loses" about 3 psi per day and i don't like that at all either...
Get thee to a dealer!
Good luck! Let us know what they do to fix it... :thumbup:

There was a problem with the AIR BAG on the manual shock. I had to have mine replaced under warranty. I think there is a service bulletin out on the problem. Once replaced, the air pressure would stay up for weeks.:clap:

The first thing to check is the valve core in the Schrader valve under the seat. A loose or failed core will lose air. This is the most common source of slow leakage. If that tests OK, it could be the piping or fittings, or a failed airbag.
