Suspension raising

Whilst looking on Ebay today at work (as you do) i noticed these. . .

Now they claim to boost the rear suspension by 40mm which would make my life a whole lot easier as i find the bike a tad low and i feel like all my weight is over the back tyre.

Question is will this make the bike,

a. a bit too keen to lean into corners and feel a bit top heavy

b. too nose heavy and more likely to low side in a fast corner?

Not sure if this helps but. . .

my suspension compresses quite a lot when im on the bike. I weigh about 19st + leathers etc so ive got all but the last two clicks of rear preload on already.

They are called jack-up kits, as you said they raise the rear up or down depending on there length.



They will help increase turn in, they won't add much noticeable weight the the front and they won't make it more likely to low side.

That would raise the rear,but if you are 19 stone I think the problem is that the bike is undersprung for you.So it wont solve the issue.You really need higher rate fork springs and rear spring.Adding preload helps,but doesnt really solve it either.
