At 80K miles it's time to do the forks again. Prolly past time since the last seal and oil change was around 20-25K miles. I'm guessing it's prolly need new fork tube bushing {not that I've noticed any abnormal movement} but what I'm really wondering about are, as the title states,,,,,upgrades...

Interested in the fork brace. Shot you a PM.

Thanks, do 'preciate it. I'm not into the sportbike stuff alot anymore so I hadn't been keeping up with the newest and bestest.

Thinking about a trackday on the FJR since it's now the closest thing to a sportbike I have. On my R1 I was a Intermediate to Expert rider and I know I won't be treating the FJR like a R1 so I'm wondering if I could just run a sport touring tire like the PRs? Only reservation I have on that is...

Thanks, PM sent.

Alright, maybe the smaller .625 link would be best. What do y'all think? Maybe not enough of a different to notice and l should get the 1.25 link?

Thanks. There is also a guy in Canada that sells raising links, just found him. The Canadian dude sells 5/8ths, 1.25 and 2 inch versions. I know the 2 inch is more than I want. I'm waffling between the 5/8ths and the 1.25 inch version. I've already raised the front and the tripple is flush with...

As the title states, I would like to buy a set of 03-05 raising links. I don't know if the Gen2 links are the same but if they are, include the Gen2.

The shorter link is effectively a shorter lever which has less mechanical leverage on the shock. While it didn't actually make your shock's spring stiffer {or the damping for that matter}, it did effectively do just that. People often notice the opposite when they install lowering links...

Thanks for the input on the height limit. I saw the 1.25 links but I was hesitant to raise the rear that much and actually was looking at the 5/8ths version. Wa also thinking about making a set that would raise the rear about .75 of an inch. I've already raised my triples as high as they can go...

I'll take em. Shot you a PM.

As the subject states. I would like to try raising the rear of my bike so I'm interested in a cheap set of raising links.

Yep, good advice as I just got one for roughly the same price!

As the subject states, need a low mile 1st gen pump. Mine's fine, not in a hurry,,,,,, just want a spare so I'm not looking to spend alot.
