Default Shotgun Shocks Installed

Picked up the bike from the workshop yesterday after having a set of Shotgun Shocks shoved in her, aswell as racetech valves/springs in the front end and Arlen Ness 3" Forward Extensions.


Completely new bike now. Well, apart from the bottom pipe i dinged when taking the first corner .


Haven't really taken it on a good run yet but felt very smooth on the way home from the shop.

Do you have that front end raked out? Or is it just an optical illusion with the low swept bag bars?

Definetly an illusion, and maybe cause i've got the bars turned right instead of left.
