Sounds good Stone, about the install, did you have to take the wheel out and forks apart, or was it a simple install through the top.

I pulled the forks off because the top cap wont come off the top of the fork tube because the top tripple clamp is on top of the cap. You cant get the spring out without pulling the cap off. Easy install about 3-4 hrs and a sixer. Its a real PITA getting the caps back on with the spring tention being so strong. You wont be dissapointed.
