PUGLIA10, is that covered by your warranty?

Also, Pretty excited that I ordered 13" Legend REVO-ARC with the mounting bracket for use with a tourpak. Anyone else using the mount have any feedback?

[QUOTE=SoCalDyna2015;19368326]personally wasn’t a fan of the Flo levers. A bit flimsy, lever is narrow and cuts into fingers compared to wide OEM blade, and the adjustment mechanism moves the usable part of the lever towards the outside about 1”. This is very counterproductive to a “reduced reach” lever.

I ended up cutting and shaping my oem levers, then bent towards the grip an inch to get engagement with reduces reach.


Thanks for the feedback, I like how it turned out. Did you use a snipe to bend the lever?

No, of course it just ran out lol two years old....$200 later.
My bike is 2 years old with 1500 miles because the PO put 500 miles on it in almost 2 years then I bought it, before anyone gives me crap for not riding it lol

On those external reservoirs, those adjustments are for the compression and rebound right?

The remote dials are for the compression, the rebound is set on another dial located at the bottom of the shock below the springs. I too run those but did not purchase the mount and rather placed them where they come out the lower back end and are still easy to get to.

Interesting. I change the preload depending if I have a lot of weight or not (usually don't have to touch it once its dialed in but if I add a fully loaded setup)
A turn or two makes a big difference.
I havent played with my rebound or compression settings at all...do you notice a difference?

I actually put the lever in a vice between two pieces of wood, heated the lever right at the elbow, and put a pipe on it. I had two pieces of wood cut to fit into the pipe to I could sandwich the lever and bend. Needs heat for sure, I had one already cut and powder coated that I tried to bend, snapped immediately.

I run this set up and the mounts work great!

I run these shocks and the rebound and compression settings definitely make a difference. The recommended settings are a good starting point, but I ended up making some tweeks to mine and now they ride perfect. It truly is the best upgrade you can do to your bike in my opinion.
