just checking what others are doing?
If the shock has a ride height adjuster then you can lengthen it to get the same effect as the spacer, you will still need to do one or the other to get the same turn in you had before
Just remember if it has a ride height adj, to measured the length of thread so you know the max to wind it out!!! you don't want to risk it only having a few threads holding it in!!! I have adjusted mine twice and raised it up a bit and it has improved the Handling. Lloydie told me to drop the forks 3mm to and thats worked as well( i have got Renthals on and your more upright etc)

new lid, Shark s900c with pinlock
what a difference! always had the usual cheapie 50quid jobs up to now, but its amazing how much attention i was paying to my breathing with the old lids to avoid fogging,
totally new riding experience
Nice! I bought a matt black S900 on Saturday, special order expecting it Tues/Wed. Looks the mutts. Had 10% of all clothing and helmets at the local Honda centre and I needed a new lid.

This is the Fender extender from other day
Got these Calipers too for a bargain 90 quid!
Monoblocks from a 2009 Fireblade, need some 20mm spacers making up, not sure if i should get black ones, or blue ones or red ones.
Will give them a proper clean and inspect the seals and stick some brembo pads in them, some brained lines too all in good time tho

We couldn't do phone calls, phone wouldn't try to dial. But I don't want phone calls anyway so that doesn't bother me. Got intercom and music

Sound quality is better than expected to be honest!! Pretty chuffed. Not on a bike until Saturday when I go to pick mine back up, so it will be tested properly then

That built into the helmet or have you added it, me and my mate dan are looking to get some sort of intercom sorted out, random hand signals and shouting over his race can is a wombles nightmare
