Re: Extending the stock shock
I think 30mm@tail would be great; then I could drop the forklegs by 10mm again and still have like 20mm raise left and not upset standard geometry of the bike too much.
Now I only have to find out how much shock has to be raised for that. |

Re: Extending the stock shock
Ha Dave, yes sorry I meant "drop the forklegs" (and raise the front) again so they come back into original position. Thanks for being concerned

Re: Extending the stock shock
Use tap water and a little blended salmon. Should give OEM feel and smell when you replace it.

Re: Extending the stock shock
... I meant put them back to stock setting in the yokes (i.e. with only the fork cap showing), not stock springs etc!!
