    I would certainly think so, and will be looking into this option if the belly pan issue arises any time soon. Every little inch counts

Probably what happened with yours as the springs in the front a re soft std on the Trips as well I believe.

    I decided against the link as it can alter the rate in unexpected ways if more than subtle. Make sure you check it when you fit it, some owners of Tigers have found the hard bits scrape pretty easy. Not sure about Triples but likely the same.


    Anyways; - Pics or it didn't happen.
    That is really farken handy to know. Thank you for that!! And yes pics are on their way.

    Nice write up there !!! And can i buy your olins ?
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    Enjoy your new ride! I'm a little jealous of the Ohlins, but mine is currently getting the CKT treatment (front & rear) at the moment. Can't wait to get it back on Saturday

    great write up by the way . definitely could envisage the tippy toe, always consider getting the boots added too as some of the shorter arses down this way can attest too

    I remember now that I was discussing re-mapping costs with Nigel, so I'm guessing the same bike I saw.

    Nice ride mate. I took one for a howl round the bays here in welly vegas once and it weren't half exciting. I get it about the height though, I was on my toes and I'm 5'8. Dont they make em for real sized people?

    Admittedly I'm almost on my toes on the guido torpedo though.

    Real sized people ...EGGFARKENZACKLY!! Many studies have shown that the average height for males is at 1.75 meters world wide. And the average height for females is 1.63 meters world wide. So why don't the designers and engineers of our motorcycles take this into consideration?
