I'm talking about the POSH ones.. I know you ain't talking about those. Yours is the ones added at the suspensions. :smile:

 

And I believe the Thread Starter is referring to those POSH ones or am I wrong? :confused:

Those Posh ones are not spacers. not sure what they are called (suspensions jacks??) but definitely not spacers. I have a spacer installed. Does not change the geometry of your bike. Does not lift the a$$ up. Basically just increases the preload of your suspension. However, one bad thing...

 

Increase preload sometimes means you have to increase your damping. Since showa has no damping adjusting, you could find the ride a little bouncy after a while.... But since i weigh in at 120kg, i dont really feel it unless at humps...

 

Take a look at the spacer on my suspension....

hi bru MiCmAsta , for my own conclusion on spacer or harder spring rate... definitely it won't effect the chain, not if u din re-adjust the chain free play of the chain after the installation.

 

If u guys are toking abt jacking up the asses of S4, i tink those heavy duty chain (etc DID 520VM shall be adequate bt not those DID428VM), and of cos those who thinking of using back the same old chain after the jacking must lengthen it to compromises for the new height. If not, use it at ur own risk!!

 

just another 2¢ of my Xperiences

 

 

And btw from ur avatar r u from 1sir huh...?

Hey guys, would appreciate if u could just drop some replies, thx in advance.

 

1) Is there such a thing call rear spacer that can 'jack' up the rear of s4 ?

 

2) Does it makes the rider's sit higher?

 

3) Any disadvantages ?

1)Yep..there is can buy at ah boy or JB...price around 20 or 30rm..

 

2)Yes it makes the rider sit's a bit higher...

 

3)Weight distribution is abit messed..Under hard braking during wet weather,chances of rear locking up is abit easier...Cornering will be affected due to the higher rear end..
