My Avion is set up a bit higher than the other GMC's that I have had. Which
I like, by the way. I have Jimmy K's mono bags and carry the coach about 3"
lower in the rear than the front. Steering is great.
Any suggestions? Too low? Level?
I love my mono bags, as I have about 3" more = - clearance on the rears,
which really helps in level. And I get my ride height at about 40psi, rather
than 100psi with the OEM bags.

I like the rear a little lower than front 3" seems like a lot but if you like it it's good.

Since 1980 I have been involved about ride height discussions.
As far as the rear is concerned going higher will lead to poor handling,
lower is fine, but becareful
Front is better at stated height,
