A note for anyone drilling the damper rods by yourself, It does not really say but it appears in Race Tech's instructions that you could drill a set of holes above and below the stock holes.
However, On this bike there is a sleeve, I believe they call it the bottoming cone, that covers the area below the factory holes on the damping rod.
You will have to make to pairs of holes above the factory holes, not a pair above and a pair below.
I am only making a note of it because I almost did it wrong.
I caught it in time and here is the properly drilled finished results.
I did end up installing those rings that I mentioned earlier as it make the valve move around less in the top of the damper rod.
I should have the forks back together tomorrow.
If I can remember I will take some pics as I go.
So far nothing has been terribly difficult.
