Air shifter pressure?
How many psi should I use for my low pressure air shifter?
How low can I run it to make sure I get at least 4-5 shifts. Will 100 psi work?

I always put 120psi in mine. I go through traps at the top of 5th and make another shift just to coast in 6th.

I've heard that most use 120, but I was wondering if I could do 100 psi.

I don't think so, if I run 120 and make 4 or 5 shifts it takes me below 100 and if I forget to refill (not that it has ever happened or anything), it will make one shift maybe. So starting out with 100 and after a shift or two it takes you down below 90psi I don't think that it would work.

I don't, I am running extensions on a stock arm. My air tank is on the ledge between the forks and the bottle is in my left fairing (a la KawasakiJockey).

If you put the solenoid directly on the actuator you can shift at 100 psi, but I would personally shoot for 125-140 psi.

I have it on my bike with over 5000 shifts now. The install wasnt hard to understand because the instructions were pretty thorough with pictures.
