After getting home Sunday afternoon. The first order of business Monday was to head out to the dealer.
You see when I bought my Bike a couple of months ago I had them lower it by changing out the dog bones. Well they never adjusted the forks in the front. :blink:
I have been getting along just fine UNTIL I went to NERDS 11 :yahoo: . I found that when following other riders on our daily tours of Vermont I had to work the bike much harder for the same results.
The guy in front of me was getting around the twist in the road without all that much effort. I am behind him at the same rate of speed needed to bring the bike down considerable more for the same result. :huh:
Aroostook being the same height as me said I should bring the bike back to stock height. Others told me to bring it back to the dealers and get the forks lower correctly would solve my issue. Or I could easily do it myself. And pointed out what and where I needed to do to get this done.
Going back to the dealer Thursday for them to lower the forks it at NO charge. Being I do like to be able to flat foot it. It helps moving the bike and makes for stops on sloped roads easier.
Thanks go out to all the guys that gave advice and if it wasn’t for a lack of tools on my part we would have done it right there that night.
