That was a baby ya'll had, but not being prepared like we are down here, it's major! Glad the guys on here are ok and hope your friends and family are too.
You can get lower by softening up the damper and running all the way out on the bolts. you'll be riding hardtail tho.....
Pat - good to see you on here again! Mark will probably chime on in a bit with the info for ya.
Congrats Nate! Never heard back from you on the PM.

I can't remember Eric if I had to guess I'd say straight... But before you buy a jockey kit... Tell us which one you are think of buying... Cause if I did it again I would have went with LA Machine! Mine is fine now after a few tweaks and changes though?

Always good to see you guys on here still!
Ok, my new project. .... Shocks. Right now I have the 413's on my train and lowered 2 inches.
Bought me some new 422's cause I wanted the chrome jobs... same shock I'm sure, just different color.
I can't remember what setting I had! I weigh 200lbs and I don't ride 2 up all that often.
If I remember right counterclockwise for the softest setting, cause that would give the spring the most room to move... right?
clockwise stiffens it up a bit?
Ive got it set so it jars my teeth on the 413's... fraid to make it so soft that it bottoms out and hurts somethin.
anyways, blah blah blah. any thoughts?
oh I had also thought of just lowering like 1 to 1.5 inches this time instead of the 2.
everything else is good! still firefightin up by seattle... live on 10 acres now in the country... busy all the time!

Jim??? lmao whats up Pat it's been a long time brah... Glad everything going good for you... How's the panhead you still got her? You can set the shocks softer and then go down a 1.5"s the pre load set softer will strech the shock out a little when you sit on it. I hear the 422's have a better damping so you may just get a better ride with them.

Nice edit Chuckles... lol
Congrat Schaub...
Tramp
My front has 3* raked trees, 2" under tubes, and a drop in progressive lowing kit all an all I think I'm down about 4" up front... But it does look higher know cause the 23" wheel.
Eric's right I have the shotgun air ride in the back... but it was just about as low with the 413's I was running before... Chuck is right though it used to ride like a hardtail.
