Hi guys,

Have you seen this:

What do you think?

That's interesting.... Are you going to get some yourself?

Hmm...I may just pull the trigger on these. Seems to be enough good feedback on various bike forums. Of course, could just drill and tap the existing caps!

Well I Honda cb1100 adjusters on, it was about 3/8" more tension on the spring at the minimum setting. Instantly it felt better, less dive and a more solid feel, sag was reduced around a 1/2" As good as it was, I cranked them down to the first line, which I think I will leave them there. The front felt more planted to me with little dive under braking. Ride was still compliant and sag was reduced another 1/4' or so. Total sag I would say was around a 1 to 1 1/4", with me aboard, my weight 225lbs.
