Re: Busa Shock Talk
I know. But have a look and see if you can do the same trick.

Re: Busa Shock Talk
Indeed, though actually if the shock bottom isn't threaded you can't do much. But if you run into interference issues with the nut + bolt then it's worth a look.
I could be chatting b0llocks, but it's something to bear in mind when you get t'other bolt.

A-thanky-you-a-very-much. Will keep an eye on it when I do it.

Re: Busa Shock Talk
A GSXR thou shock on a curvy would have made the bike really soft. Its softer than the standard IIRC.

Re: Busa Shock Talk
Yeah, it was short as well. Really not a good choice, but that was what he bought, so...

Re: Busa Shock Talk
Right then, after a few adjustments of pre-load, compression and rebound I am a happy camper.
My only little niggle is I feel a little forward biased, and in the wet I don't like that too much, but according to my fanny bands, I'm not all that forward biased, so maybe its just me. I feel much better exiting corners, don't feel I am squatting as much. |
