Hey guy's, I jacked up the back end a while ago before I did most of my mods and threw out my standard dog bones. Anyone with a standard set please call out !

mate that would be fantastic, I really want to fit the standard one's back in to see if I can improve the handling a bit. It goes pretty good but tends to steer a little too quick and def has too much weight pushing onto the front. Let me know if you can find them and I'll grab them from you

I hope it does the job Rod, I went for a 600km ride on Saturday and it was pretty good, but with the new tail being in a higher position than the old one it puts huge load on the front. I just cant seem to use all of the back tyre, and you really need to be riding on the ragged edge to get your knee down.

Hey George, fitted the dog bones and went for a big ride yesterday and can confirm they sorted evrything out. The bikes not necessarily any faster but is a hell of a lot easier and less scary to ride at a decent pace. Thanks again.
