Tick tick tick , I want my motorcycle back! Nice 40 degree highway run to drop off. Turn around Sometime next week. Lot of bikes in line. Rally liking the fox 13.5. As far as the kickstand block here is the thing. With the stock 12.6 shock I had to do the lean to the right thing to deploy the stand . When I went to the Hd tall shock it was much better as far as the stand being fussy over incline but more lean obviously. Now with the 13.5 and the block it is like the stock set up as far as having to lean the bike to the right to deploy the stand . I assume with the raised front end with the dropping the tubes to raise 1/2” it should be better.

gonna get it first thing tomorrow morning. As far as for the good or … rear shock is for comfort and the reason I went with the f-13.5 was due to all the great reviews. I was Able to get in a good ride after the install and the hour rip on the highway to get it to the shop. The shock Feels great and the bike definitely falls into the turns better. The front suspension is performance. I needed to beef up my front end to accommodate the fxrt fairing. I believe the stock springs are 9n-mm I thought I read? the Olin’s I went with are 10n-mm. That should do the trick. Don’t believe there will be a for the worse outcome. The question is always is it worth the money. The farthest I have ever went with previous bikes was mid grade progressive.

Picked up the bike, romped it home. Changed fluids. I had the shop do my brake fluid also with the Olin’s install. Rode it all afternoon. The tech set everything to Olin’s recommended set up. Front suspension feels great. Planted solid feeling. Zero brake dive.first impression sitting on it with the forks lowered definitely feel the rise. Very happy with it.
