4 sent out this week 8 just arrived from race team

Actually got mine fitted yesterday.

It has all been said before how good it is. Love it.

As suggested ny Luke, the shorter dog bones are not needed. I had a jack-up kit on and the bike still turns as sharp as before, but with more stability too.
It helps the front end too, but I'm going the attack that soon, also mentioned by Luke.
Setting is spot on solo.

Thanks Luke. Another recommendation.

I get asked alot about spring colour so too make sure everyone understands

It does not matter wot colour red,black.yellow or silver

[size=3.95em]there is no difference in spring rate
[/size][size=1.35em]hope this clears it up[/size]

[eddie]

one more question  luke...
... does the spring colour  matter  :lol

[devilsyam]

TRUST YOU lol :rollin

Nice and becoming rare yellow shock arrived yesterday so be quick

Thanks Devilsyam for the instructions, much evolved from the originals that went in the recycling  :oops , I have all the recommended tools, all ready to have a go this weekend........Well I was until the other half has arranged for house viewing on Saturday and with mothers day on sunday I have no chance of doing it this weekend. Oh well best lade plans and all that....

Going to order a Shock Sock, so that its kept in good condition as I ride all year round.

Bugger can't believe I just missed out on a yellow sprung shock and I bet the sring rate is different cos its yellow eh? I'm amazed how much lighter the r6 shock is compared to the standard one!.....or is the cos r6 one is clean! :rolleyes

[dickturpin]

I went for silver cos I think that is the heaviest spring rate!

[1967fazer]

Just read the tail end of my last post!!!!! I think meant to say  "or is it cos the r6 shock is clean", but I'm not sure now
Brain fade, methinks

[devilsyam]

I think you mean clean as in like "brand new"  :rollin

[1967fazer]

Fitted and working, bring on this weekend

[devilsyam]

Just a note to all which is not in the instructions but is common sense when you think about it.

Remember to prop up the rear of the bike because when the bolts are removed from the shock the rear end will drop and sit on the foot pegs scraping the rear plastic  :eek  :o
