Title: Suspension........ almost done...... :(
Post by: gr8ride4u2luv on March 12, 2009, 10:53:21 PM
So I have everything together and thought everything was all fine and dandy, talked with Jim at Motowoz and I guess my front shocks are too long for the Houser MGC LT a arms. Apparently they require a 17.25" shock. I purchased used Motowoz's that were 18.5. So now I have to have them tore apart and made to 17.25 inches. DAMMIT! :'( As soon as I think I'm ready to go riding, it looks like I'm going to be out for another freaking month........ :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :mad:
