R6 shock fitting project.

Swingarm length may a factor though, longer the arm the stronger the spring will need to be. Thats why I've ended up with a 16 kg/mm spring
Well it fits! But as you say and I've read before, the swingarm is the problem.
Fitted it last night and my knees are now bending quite a bit when I sit on the bike and I'm a short arse at 5'5" so I'll definitely need to look at shorter dogbones or heavier spring Sad
A wee test ride today to work will let me see how much difference it makes as its only 10miles and mostly motorway but it'll give me an idea of it working.
