    Maximum shock extension only happens when it's on the centerstand or flying off a jump.

    Going down a road it adjusts the ride height, or sitting at a light it adjusts the seat height.

    He was talking about seat height sitting on the bike while stopped, not flying off jumps or on the centerstand. Changing the preload does this perfectly.


    Life is too short to ride an L.

          Grab another beverage, it works on the front forks, too.

            Thx Steve. It's refreshing to get a response. I keep forgetting not everyone was raised like me with manners.

            Is it too much to ask for a response even if ONE doesn't know an individual? It really says alot about an individual who ignores someone talking to them.
