    how it running bro? done any monos yet.. gwarrn. a bit of hair from the dog that bit ya, at least do a burnout for the camera.

    p.s. is there anywhere legal to do burnouts. ie. will I get in trouble if I do doughnuts in my garage?
    the speedway in green island do burnout nights every now and then.
    in your garage, with the doors shit and locked - youre legal. its private property and no longer a public road as locked doors prohibit access by the public.

    The same applies to the living room if you have wooden floors!

    It doesn't stiffen it up, it just reduces the air volume more as it gets close to bottoming, progressively increasing the spring rate. Can make a fair bit of difference, but it does pay to look for model-specific advice before going too far. And then, nothing beats having the right springs in in the first place...
    Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there lurks the skid demon

    I'm happy with how it is currently, doesn't get upset by shit heap roads. It's set up a wee bit soft because the majority of the roads I ride are extreme and have poo surfaces. And I like being comfy.

    I've got a plan for the swing arm conversion.
