Anyone able to help me out??? I've (finally) got the bike of my dreams, (about a month ago), and I've got a problem...
Me last bike was a CBR1000F with what seemed to be plastic tyres and before that was an old and heavy FJ1200, so i've never tried to get me knee down....
Got some leathers at the weekend, an some cheapy knee sliders, but they look shite without scratches on em, so I need help FAST!!!:neenaw:
I went round and round a local roundabout earlier till I was dizzy..... I was hanging right off the bike, cranked over further than seemed possible, and my knee was still a good 4 inches off the deck !!!!!
WOT'S GOIN ON ??????:dunno:
Am I just bein Chicken S**t, and not getting her over enough? (I've read forums where people are scraping their Birds FAIRING, for flips sake!!), Is it possibly a suspension set up problem (Seems OK though), or do I need to fit the much talked about rear shock spacer???
Any help is greatly appreciated...:beer:
BTW, how easy and how big a job is it to fit the shock spacer ???:dunno:
