Apart from installing the raising links, i also set the preload n rebounce to max. This set up stiffens my suspension. It works well for me as i prefer it to be stiffer than bouncy. And i've never scrap my mainstand on humps anymore. In addition it also gives me increase cornering clearance so i could corner better. :D

 

And you hit the mainstand while cornering rite?

Dear Anodise,thanks-typo error.:angel:

2 up on DL1000 doing cornering- your bike will tell u if u go too low...Pot holes-centre stand cry...

 

Review told us DL650 is ideal for 1 up.

 

This is my 2 cents worth of advise as a pillion...hehe...

what webby? come come share share. i was thinking of getting raiser link + change of front fork spring and rear shock springs to Hyper Pro.....

 

On specs 1000k is 840mm vs 650 820mm.. Which is like only 2cm diff. The ground clearance for both is same. So the diff might be spring compression.

 

Enquired from Motoworld. Its 400+++ for the springs including installation but gotta wait 45days for shipment to arrive... .Hopefully after that will be SWEET AND SMOOTH!!! muhahahah
