Arnott - Motorcycle-Specific 'TrueAIR' Suspension Design
Our thanks to Merritt Island, Florida based Arnott Suspension for a reminder about its TruAIR suspension technology and how it differs from many of the other aftermarket motorcycle air suspension options on offer.
Simply put, Arnott says that "the technology used in our designs has been developed to create a true adjustable air suspension, not simple air cylinders, 'air-assisted' shocks or automotive castoffs.
"Hence the name. Arnott TruAIR onboard adjustable air suspension technology provides superior comfort, adjustability and great looks. Arnott kits offer fast, on-the-fly adjustable air spring firmness using a powerful onboard compressor."
Arnott motorcycle air suspension kits are fully adjustable and based on height and weight, "so riders can rest flat-footed while stopped and enjoy a more comfortable ride on long-distance runs, especially when riding two-up or with luggage."

Arnott emphasizes that its kits are designed and tuned specifically for motorcycles. Even if the air spring sleeve is fully deflated, the fender won’t touch the tire, unlike automotive-designed shocks installed on motorcycles. "Since Arnott’s TruAIR suspension is true onboard adjustable air suspension, it helps to significantly reduce issues seen in air cylinders or ‘air-assisted’ shocks such as bouncy rides and the danger during evasive maneuvering or hard riding."

Conventional spring and shock tuning can be "tedious and time-consuming - taking days or even weeks." With Arnott’s onboard adjustability, tuning air suspension to the rider's individual taste and needs is often reduced to just a few minutes. Setting the suspension to specific drive conditions is therefore also quicker and faster, improving the overall ride.
"By adjusting air pressure and shock valving, the ride can be smooth and comfortable, firm and rigid, or somewhere in the middle. What makes Arnott air suspension unique is that you can alter the motorcycle’s ride performance based on desired settings, all with existing components."
