I just installed my Kat shock and I put it in set at 3 up top and 4 on the bottom, is this good as a starting point? Should I increase it when riding with a 2up? to what? Oh and I weight 170 if that matters.
There isn't going to be a specific answer...just generalizations. Start where you have it and see how you like it. If there's something you don't like, come back and describe it. It's easier to diagnose a problem than to jump directly over the problem/diagnosis straight to the solution.
ok, that makes more sense. thanks mac. Ill be back. waiting for new tires,
by the way Easiest install ever!
I dunno , i think my Hagon was a lil easyer :thumb: , how does it feel , because mine is incredable , the sinking i used to get sittin on it , just isnt there anymore :thumb:

My Katana shock is rusted a bit and i can't adjust it. Tried hammering it from side with hammer and screwdriver. It is now on setting 6, and i'm 145 lbs. It's a bit too harsh now.

Yeah tyres, tires mean you get exhausted
I just recieved a rear shock from a hayabusa. Can't wait to put it on! It will probably be longer and a hell of a lot stiffer but I am cool with that. 194cm and 120kg so I need all the help I can get!

Anakist...when you get it in measure it eye to eye. I need something that is about 12.5" eye to eye to retrofit to my CX and I've been looking for a spiffy looking piggyback type shock. Probably going to end up going with a couple CR250 Showa bits, though, haha...
HOLY HELL!!! WHat a friggin difference! The combo of Sport Demons and the Shock, Whole different bike! wow! I love it. Handleing just improved 10 fold!
It is 330mm center to center.
About 12.9"
