My new bike :-)

Nice bike GG, congrats!

Why don't you adjust the ride height adjuster before you change the dog bones?
Or is it already on it's lowest setting already?

Oooh, details? I may refer to my shiney owners manual. Got half way through this morning

I did not think those shocks had ride height adjustment other than the shimming washers under/over the top clevis.

Yep....and what can be adjusted already has. I'm getting -25mm dog bones and a standard seat that I might get modified. I have found a way to take it out on my own for now. Two bits of wood spaced apart on the driveway means I can ride up out of the garage onto the driveway, park it between the blocks of wood, lock the house up and then I have the left block of wood to help me get it off the sidestand and the right block of wood so I can get my foot down to kick the sidestand up and put it in gear...lol. I'm fine on the flat and I'm fine at junctions, traffic lights etc...it's just when I have to park it on not flat surfaces...lol!

modify the seat first, no point ruining the handling of a reasonable bike for nowt.

Bought a standard one today, so will mod that

Cool, if you do resort to playing with the linkage, for fooks sake ensure the shock has full and safe travel unlike half of the spacks on here.

Yeah, Dan is very unwilling to mess with what works. Someone has already dropped the forks 5mm.....not sure if I should leave them as I'll be potentially lowering the bike or put them back to standard. It handles beautifully at the moment, so I'd rather cope with it being a little tall and not sacrifice handling.

I do need it lowered a little though, so lets see what difference the seat makes
