RS Warrior Air ride from PCS

[christok]

I am thinking that with my 330 i may need to go to an air ride system. I have done a search on the foum and most of the subjects date back around 4 or 5 years and talk about Tricky Air.

On a WEB search I found a system other than Tricky Air from Pacific Coast Star

They have two systems available one with an air lock eq which is supposed to give rebound adjustment as well
check them out at the bottom of this page RS Warrior Lowering Kits and Suspension parts (509)466-3410

their basic system is about the same price as Tricky air but the EQ system is more$$$$

Has anyone installed either system from PCS on their bike and if so what are your inpressions

thanks and ride safe

Chris, that PCS model does not look like a Tricky Air Ride model:



As far as I know, there are 3 manufacturers who make the Air Ride for Warrior:
Arnott, Tricky and AirFX.

Personally, I have installed Tricky model with remote and I'm very satisfied. I do on a regular basis long rides and I have total comfort on my bike.

Thanks Teck I do not believe the PCS is made by tricky air. They do not say who makes it for them. I contacted arnott but they told me they do not make an air ride system for the warrior. The more expensive PCS system seems to address some of the problems that other members have complained about with their air ride systems by adding an adjustable rebound but it is expensive. I was hoping someone would know who made this system. I have heard very good things about Arnott and they have a great warranty - 5 years I believe but they told me they dont do warriors. I would assume that the PCS system is made either by Arnott or airfx

I have not looked at airfx

[TECK]

Arnott used to make a kit for Warrior, I see they remove it from their site. There are members who installed their kit. I looked at the rebound issue way back and the problem I found with the Arnott kit was their cylinder being too short. From my experience, I have no rebound issues with the Tricky kit, the ride is smooth as butter. What I like on the Tricky ride is how high the bike can go. Usually I bring it few inches up to lineup the wheel rim with the fender:



But I could go a lot higher.

yea i haven't had any issues with the PCS kit at all. now that you said the names i think it was the airfx kit. my bike use to bottom out before when i hit pot holes and stuff. obv tried to avoid them as best as possible but theres always that one that you see when its to late to avoid. since i put the kit in i havent bottomed out once! it feels like your riding on a cloud!

Turbod ss by chance do you remember your set up before the air ride. You mentioned bottoming out and I'm curious with what set up thanks.
