ahhh confusion over

cheers for that mate

OK ... here is where the confusion lies with me .....

I have been advised its not a good idea to put a rear shock spacer in with the standard rear shock ..... (it can cause instability at high speeds?)

What is it about the aftermarket shock that makes it ok to put a spacer in?

Cheers for any help.

Which year fits best ... scouring evil bay now!!!

Cheers

looks like its a risk not worth taking?

PS im 6' 4" and about 13 st?

I take it the spacer works ok with the standard shock?

Had a warning only to do it with an aftermarket shcok in place.

Cheers for any advice

Any body tips on how to do this and what I would need?

Not 0-60, but some interesting stats if correct :roll: http://www.sportrider.com/bikes/146_street_bike_performance_times/index.html nothing gets near the firestorm 60-80 time!!! Just had a quick glance and immediately the 60-80 time is trashed by the ZX10R. Just nipping out to my local Kwak dealer ...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_VTR1000F

in the first paragraph, no reference to go with it

I have read that 'a motorcycle magazine' said the storm was te fastest 0-60 bike in the world, does any body know what magazine it was????

(Go to wiki page on the firestorm)
