Not without upgrading the forks first, especially if you haven't lowered the rear!

Yes, otherwise all the weight will be on the back end and the weight distribution will be terrible and the bike will handle terribly too. Drop the forks by 6mm at first, with the rear lowered by 30mm, and let me know how you get on.

hopfully i will be doing it next week so i will let you know hows it gos thx
