or Jack the back end up a bit. Put a 4 mm spacer between the frame and the rear shock.
That will make it turn in quicker too.

My new ride is a bit of a Howler and I love to make her Squeal
Re: Finaly naked!!!
The fat bar is right on top of the forks, so it´s impossible to lower them more in the yokes.benny hedges wrote:can't you just drop the forks in the yokes????

A 4 or 6mm spacer between where the shock mouts to the underneath of the seat mount. You un do the nut at the top, and place the spacer underneath on the extra space created, then tighten the nut back up. I have put 4mm on mine.

or http://www.wemoto.com for you - they were on offer at the time, german made, but not sure if they still are.
makes a big difference tho, particularly when braking, the forks no longer dive & bottom out.
and the adjusters do something now when i turn them

Re: Finaly naked!!!
I´m looking at the progressive springs option Benny, and they have two sets of them.
Do you know any info about the difference between them that you could share (besides the price)?
Fork Springs Progressive - Hagon - Pair £ 60.79
Fork Springs Progressive - Wirth Germany £ 89.90
