Re: Almost ready for a test ride!

Hello Tsmall!

I noticed your bike is a bit lower to eye at least. More beautiful to my eyes... Has anyone of you guys changed the settings of back shock absorbers. Bike from stock is set to 3 (out of 5). What is like to drive the bike for example on 1 or 5. First i'll drive it as it is, but i do want to know what are your experinces, when shocks are set to the lowest or highest and will the bike be lower when set to hard shocks?

Thank you guys!

Re: Almost ready for a test ride!

The bike will ride softer & be lower on the "1 setting.The #5 position would be very stiff & the bike would be at it's maximum height.The #1 setting worked well for me as I'm about 150 lbs.If I had a passenger I used the #3 position,so as not to bottom out.
:cool:

Re: Almost ready for a test ride!

Tsmall! Ok, thanks. I thought i could lower my bike with two clicks on rear shocks... It would be nice though...
So, do they serve you good?
