I did an install on a 14 a few years back and pulled the tool kit out, compressor sat in there great. I powdercoated the air tank black and mounted it on the belly wing. It turned out good and I still see the bike from time to time and he has not had any problems to date.

Thanks.
No the passenger seat is no longer useable but just buy another stock seat, bolt it on and go. When you wanna go racing, swap the seats back out.

Yeah, I just didn't want an issue later on. My pump is mounted using the two stock holes on it and it is bolted to the bike but I can assure you that if you did zip-tie it, the pump doesn't get hot enuff to burn your hand so you'll be fine.

It is just a Walmart mini tire air pump. Take the pump out and mount it. I paid $10 for it and it works great. No filling a bottle or hanging off the side of my bike.

I thought you only needed 120 psi to run the air shifter?

I run mine at 140 psi because of the heavy duty clutch springs.

Where are you getting power from to run the compressor,I was going to run a inline 15 amp fuse and get power from the taillight.

When running power to a motor you need to get power straight from the battery. The power wire running to the tail light is too small
