We didn't actually buy any of that suzuki fuel stuff, Bibio was investigating his nail in tyre problem.

Hmm.

Think the thrust needs a bit of work, the pervy bit on the other hand......:)

Dave

about 4". the suspension has dropped it 1-1.5" (without lowered dogbones) the rest has been a seat scoop. i could go lower with dogbones and sliding forks threw yokes but it would start grinding over speed humps. i also had to take 1,1/4" off the sidestand.

the handling is sublime. the odd occasional shimmy round bumpy long bends when i'm cranked right over (due to me proffering a softer suspension setup) but apart from that its spot on and a world apart from the standard setup.
