If she comes with it I’ll mount it tomorrow!
Yes?The gun or her?

Are you on 35’s?I installed my springs yesterday. Set rings at 4” on the front and 8” on the back. This gave me a 16.5 ride height on both ends. Went out on a 10-12 mile ride over different terrain and found that the ride is a good bit stiffer. The ride height increase also makes the handling feel a little more unstable but I’m sure I will get used to it. I also noticed that I can feel more vibrations in the pedal and the steering wheel. I am going to assume this because of the axle angle. Going on a big ride today at Top Trails in Talladega, Al. and will post again tomorrow.
And that’s what wet panties being made looks like!!
I am still on the stock Carnivores. Made through the ride but the machine is make all kinds of different noises. Mostly sounds like the the axle angle is to much. I am going to take the ride height down to 15.5 and see what happens.Are you on 35’s?
Any limit straps?I am still on the stock Carnivores. Made through the ride but the machine is make all kinds of different noises. Mostly sounds like the the axle angle is to much. I am going to take the ride height down to 15.5 and see what happens.
Not yet. That would probably be a good idea.Any limit straps?
Any limit straps?
just lowered to 15” and problems solved.I’m still on stock tires too. I’m aiming for just 14.5 when I set mine up.
Do you have the measurements for the lock rings and the crossover rings for the 15” setting?just lowered to 15” and problems solved.
3 5/8 front. 7 5/8 rear. Left crossover rings at the factory setting.Do you have the measurements for the lock rings and the crossover rings for the 15” setting?
Ya well if u read ur owners manual that’s what it says.But what fun would that be? I’d pay more attention to the camber as well and the angle of the cv joints.I think ur on the correct path to stick to what the engineers at Kawasaki had in mind.Set ur tire ps to what they recommend as well before u take ur measurementsI’m still on stock tires too.

The reason ur starting to see the discussion of limit straps is because the longer springs are pushing the travel greater into the positive camber area,and that’s something u do not wantYa well if u read ur owners manual that’s what it says.But what fun would that be?

And it’s just a good idea for a sport machine being driven hard with heavy tiresThe reason ur starting to see the discussion of limit straps is because the longer springs are pushing the travel greater into the positive camber area,and that’s something u do not want
That’s a great point.im tryin to get some 35s that I’m confident w ,not having much luck buying lightwe 35s.And it’s just a good idea for a sport machine being driven hard with heavy tires
