Of course I didnt measure before I started, that would make to much scense. But when I finished the measurement from the ground to the bottom of the muffler is 7 1/8". Is that what it should be?

 

That sounds right for having the PSI pretty high in the rear shocks. Once you give it a ride and dial in your PSI for the most comfort, you may end up running a lower PSI and then the back of the bike might settle a bit lower.

 

Yea while I was back there and had it apart I went ahead and put on progressive 416 shocks and did a rear brake job. I put 30 PSI in the shocks to start and it seems good just dont know what is ideal for them yet

 

Do you like the progressive shocks? Any issues with them not holding air properly over time, leaking etc? id love to know.

 

I have not rode much since, just about 20 miles on them but yes, I can tell a world of difference. As far as leaking, I have not checked it. I am today going to fill it up to 30 PSI while it is just sitting in the garage and check it 24 hrs later and see what it is. I will let you know that outcome. But I can for sure tell a difference in turning, bumps in road are much much smother. Also adding a road zeppelin seat in a couple weeks that will help even more

 

As of 4:27 PM I put in 25 LBS. i will check tomorrow 24 hrs

 

At 4:32 air pressure is the same. I will check i. A few days.
