happy 6th birthday dori.
Re: happy 6th birthday dori.
Chris .iv always run my bikes a little hard on the rear over the years but with this one it just didnt work.. which means one of two things.
1. dori is already quite stiff chassis wise.
2. iv been wrong since 1981

Re: happy 6th birthday dori.
I also ran a Hagon shock and it worked for me- I also like a lot of weight over the front. Maybe that's a good indicator- if you like a front end loaded up, a Hagon works well, even though it's not as adjustable.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
Re: happy 6th birthday dori.
that was my thinking . once its set for me i dont have to worry about luggage or two up riding so i can leave well alone

Re: happy 6th birthday dori.
A lot of things come into play when you talk about suspension etc on a motorcycle, and that's before you even bring in personal opinions of likes and dislikes of how you want the bike to behave.
The main thing is Rob, you now have something you're happy with
Cheers Tony for your post
That's the same for me
Chris.

Re: happy 6th birthday dori.
Agree with you Al.It just don't look right.
SO WHEN DOES THIS OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW BETTER KICK IN
Re: happy 6th birthday dori.
I think the front white wheel could grow on me, as you have other bits of white on the bike to match it. It's just that we are used to seeing it in orange.
Whether it's lairy enough is another question
What has surprised me more than anything though, is the darkness of the blue paintwork in the photo's, I guess the camera sensor has over compensated for the bright sunshine as it normally comes out a lighter shade of blue.
At least the sun is shining
I can't blame you for replacing the front wheel after your experience with the rear,
Chris.
