rear shocks

[Nlmman47]

My gl1500 has a issue with rear shocks. I use the on board air compressor. It pumps air but don't see it raise. I reslese air I hear the air leave but no motion from the back. Can you tell me what's wrong

Does the pressure reading change on the LCD?
BTW, you are supposed to only change pressures with the bike on the center stand, so you won't see the changes as they happen.

There are OEM replacement screens, but then there is THIS replacement upgrade.

As said, make pressure adjustments on the center stand, the compressor is not meant to air up the shock with the weight of the bike on it, and it is not a fast change even when on the center stand.

There is an aftermarket upgrade screen.

The air shocks do not significantly alter ride height, that is not their intent. The intent of the air ride is to increase or decrease preload damping - how much you "feel" the road at a given load range ( ie. the combined weight of the bike, rider, passenger, and cargo).
