i have a RWU blade front end on my storm which is around 35mm shorter than standard apparently, but it feels really pitched forward, even with straight bars. i assume a shorter shock would even this out? i know hagon do shorter shocks on request. thanks

Re: shorter shock
Have you set up the static sag on your bike? If not you may find some adjustments with the RWU forks will help,

Re: shorter shock
Somewhere there is a database of shock lengths however the YSS and Nitron both have adjustable length.

Re: shorter shock
i'm not really up on suspension set ups but there is a place in worcester somewhere i will take it once it's roadworthy again. i think a yss or a hagon is as far as my budget will stretch, i think. Just put a set of eco yss shocks on my 600 scooter and it's a vast improvement
