BMW S1000RR shock conversion question
#18
Yes, exactly that to pack the top mount. I think mine were 2mm each. The best thing to do is measure the Fazer one when it's off, and then get exactly the same. Quite sure mine were 2mm each side though. The good news is there's loads of ally in the top mount so you can glue then nice and flush and they'll never move again.


Let me know what you think of it. I love mine. Got 15-17mm of static sag and about 30-35mm of rider sag. If you haven't changed the spring and you weigh more than 13stone, I'd wind the preload all the way to max (all threads showing). I had position 8 on the high speed compression (large nut at the top) and 9 on the slow speed compression (inner screwdriver at the top) and 7 on the rebound (bottom).


Let us know how you get on.
