after another brain storm, i thought that a R1 rear shock would fit into my FZR1000....wrong
anyway its now in, a new linkage has been made and new link rods.
the problem is when i stand the bike up off the the side stand the rear of the bike sags...about 50mm. i have wound the pre load up to the max setting. this improved it, but its still crap...
am i missing something, i know that my bike is about 30kg heavier than the r1.
would a heavier spring fix it..if so how do i work out what i need ?
