Re: Fork Brace>>>>Best 30 minute suspension mod ever.
* Any fork mods up front (springs, gold valve, etc)? Only mod up front is Fenda Extenda
* Any mods at the rear? None
* On the pre-load:
** How many clicks (from start) till you feel resistance? Haven't checked in the last couple of months but after i refilled the resevoir it was about 1 turn to feel resistance and 31 clicks to full preload
** How many clicks do you adjust to when riding? Two up? 15-20 clicks riding alone 25-29 clicks for 2 up and loaded
** Do you use a top-case: occasionally, all-the-time, never (?) Two up? Hondaline Top box on 99% of the time
* How many miles on the rear flange bearings? ~15300 miles (present miles on bike). Inspected when I replaced the rear tire 1000 miles ago.
A question or two about your bike:I never meant to suggest one of us go out and do some empirical testing
I was looking for some "independent lab" testing results, so we'll have to stick with subjective results.
