      Really shouldn’t go by that anyways. Not all material is the same exact length. Set your forks where you like them but use your axel bolt as the indicator that the forks are even. Adjust where the bolt slides through the easiest.

    Can you change the rev limiter on the power app so it doesn't rev so hard through the gears?

    No improvement to the connecting rod, so we still get to worry about it snapping on jump face??

      It has a new connecting rod

    • @jamesdavison5755

      Whole thing new knuckle and connecting rod. Thats why there is a lowered spring rate

    • @bugs7425
      @bugs7425 11 дней назад

      I don’t mean the rear suspension link, the engine’s crankshaft connecting rod snaps. Ask Keefer, it happened to him on a jump causing a crash.
