Depends on the price.

It’s the idle screw, it is a cable operated throttle, it even has a thumb wheel on it.

what it’s like in @Marcel le Moose Fondler’s town.

Gay.

That's because you are fat.

Rude.

Sorted it out yet?

Well I said it might be desirable, you don’t read well do you? It may be that currently the forks are too stiff, reducing preload would soften them and allow a little more sag. On the other hand you don’t want them too soft as you are not doing anything to the rebound springs and there is only rudimentary damping so there could be an issue with oscillation being introduced. Personally I would buy a second set of forks and shorten them but I can do that.

I just had a look and I don’t think Scotland will win the final.

This is the stuff, not a ride to Starbucks with a snow mobile and some random guy in a car, come on you lot, get your act together, Eric spends two thirds of the year snowbound and rides more than most of you put together, brings us epic reports like this, rebuilds his bike using an elastic band and a toothbrush, dodges law enforcement, drinks warm beer and eats rattle snakes for breakfast. Meanwhile you lot are worried that you have the wrong air in your tyres.

What are you on about? Most conventional forks use preload spacers.

Indian P.O.S.

He started another new job about then.

On the sauce again?

It’s okay, they all do that.

In fact I would say part 3 is a preload spacer, reducing the length of that would have the effect of softening the front end which might be desirable or not.

The problem is that the fork stanchion could then over extend and completely unload the spring on bumps, that puts you in bad territory.

If it is injected it will have a MAP sensor, remove that and clean it out, I wouldn’t be surprised if that is the issue, with it being a single if the MAP sensor is gunged up then it will likely run full lean on decelerating and shut the ignition down.

If you lower the shocks but don’t touch the front all it will do is slow down the steering which isn’t a bad thing for a new rider, don’t forget to adjust the headlight aim though.

Isn’t there some sort of air box mod to cure this, I read it somewhere I’m sure.

Not available in this region, although there will be some red detailing.
