Hopefully this is a quick yes or no query
Looking at Lozzo's picture from modifying the battery tray: http://www.flickr.com/photos/78131584@N00/2269018370/ the stock seat gets cut I assume to accommodate the extra height, but with the corbin there isn't that much material to make room for this. Is there any way around it or should I just get a proper shock and have done with it? Thanks Brett |

Hehe yeah I like mine, there was no intention of swapping it, I wasn't sure at first and thought it was weird and go kart like as has been said but I tried putting the stock one back on and soon switched back! felt so unstable on the stock one hehe
![]() ![]() hmm might have to start saving for a hagon or something then, thanks for the input! |

There is a way of sliding the under-tray back an inch and then bending it down by a couple of inches.

![]() Hmm, doesn't sound particularly easy?, or at least easy to bodge which I do with passion and vigour, might result in my undertray dropping off or something nasty heh. might be worth investigating though, if it is easier than I imagine then it would solve the problem, interesting. |
