Slammed bikes are becoming the norm for two-wheel custom trends in the air suspension industry. One of the reasons we’re seeing this trend is because air ride systems increase the quality of your ride without the need for major modification.

VIAIR keeps a close watch on the motorcycle industry because many of our C Model compressors are used in a motorcycle air suspension system. Using a VIAIR 95C compressor in your custom bagger increases the adjustability of your ride height by to dropping to the ground, or rising to stock height when needed.

Greg from Unknown Customs gave us the low down on motorcycle suspension trends and shows and why it’s essential to run a VIAIR compressor for your air ride setup!

What is Unknown Custom Cycles and how did you guys get started?

Unknown Customs is a full custom motorcycle shop. We specialize in lay frame Harleys, frame rake, metal fabrication, paint and custom parts.

What is your favorite part of being in the motorcycle Community?

My favorite part of the motorcycle community would definitely be the people we meet and friends we’ve made.

Approximately how many shows do you attend, and what are your favorites?

We try to attend at least 3 of bigger events in the Southeast a year and 5 to 6 more localized shows. Capital City Bike Fest and Panama City Thunder Beach are probably 2 of my favorite shows the last few years.

Most popular bagger trend you noticed this year?

I’ve noticed the audio systems on bikes getting bigger and louder. It’s not one of my favorite things, but I definitely respect the sound guys are able to produce out of a motorcycle.

Do you think a VIAIR compressor should be vital tool in every bagger’s motorcycle setup?

Yes… not only for the adjustability of the ride, but also the seat height for the rider to reach the ground. The better you can touch the ground, the more comfortable and safer you will feel.

On a scale of 1-10, how difficult was it to air up/down using your VIAIR 95C Compressor? How long did it take you?

It’s not difficult at all when paired with stainless air tanks and Accuair valve blocks from our buddies at Dirtyworks LLC. We also use VIAIR 100C & VIAIR 380C depending on the build.
