All I'm getting at with the belt tension is that my service manual shows (2) different belt deflection values.
Low profile shocks (I'm assuming this means 12") calls for 1/4" - 7/16" of deflection
Standard shocks (I'm assuming this means 13") calls for 3/8" - 9/16" of deflection
I'm not a math genius, what's the trend here? Where would this line up with total deflection for a 14" shock?

All this talk of 14" rears and stock height fronts being a no no is making me worry. I've had mine on the bike for almost 2 years now and ridden close to 10k miles without any issues... YET!
Just went on a 200 mile ride last weekend 2up and checked it. All good. Guess I'll deal with it when the time comes, IF it ever comes. Until then I'm gunna ride her like I stole her.

Been playing with the Pro Action fork kit on 18 SGS for 3000 mi. Started with stock tubes with the dual reed or whatever they call it and never got small sharp road ripples to comply the handling was acceptable. Went to +2 tubes with older check valve and after 200 miles Saturday, might I say curves and then high speed curves, big improvement. Still need more tuning but I think they have potential to be good. They are not NIX 30's but also not 2k.
Got Bob tubes if I want to go longer but the Freewheeler tubes seem to be fine, never touched down all day, although I was not full tilt.
More playing, I mean testing today.

Made sure to make some time to do irresponsible things this weekend. Never thought a bagger could be as fun as this thing is.
