So Ogre is that a single rate spring and what is your weight and the spring rate?
Did it feel good on the way home...
I will be happy to provide info based on 'rider impressions'.
If you want technical information, contact Ken @ SB SUSPENSIONS.
My weight, nude, the last time I got on a scale, was 165 lbs.
It is my understanding, that this is a single rate spring (non-progressive). The spring rate? I have no idea...whatever Ken selected for me, he's the expert.
FYI...I am not heading 'home' for prob'ly a week. I was supposed to me fastwoman in VA on Sunday for a 6 day Appalacian twisties tour. But she cancelled because she is afraid of the weather.
So now I am heading south solo, towards the Tail of the Dragon.
I had the suspension work done on Thursday and had an appointment for an Aztech seat mod on Friday at noon. It was about 250 miles from my Thursday motel and I thought that I left myself plenty of time to get there...
But I had forgotten that I would be going from Central Time to Eastern Time and loose an hour via time zones.
No worries, still had time to get there and not be tardy.
Then Murphy's Law started to strike...1st it started raining...
I stopped for (what I hoped would be my only stop) fuel. The only gas at that exit was having problems with their pumps (all of them). I spent several minutes pumping and still had gained less than 1/2 gallon.
Screw this, I thought and headed back to the highway.
At the next exit, there were 2 stations. One close to the exit and one a little up the road.
I go to the close one. All pumps being used but one. I go there. That one doesn't take credit cards, must go in and pre-pay.
I go down the road to the next station. I had already taken my gloves off to get credit card so to save time I just stuff them in my half unsipped jacket.
I get to the next station and top off. Then I go in to pee.
Urinal is occupied so into the stall I go...unzip jacket to get access to pants and gloves land in (thankfully a clean looking) toilet.
Grab gloves ASAP & pee, then head to sink to wash hands and gloves.
Luckily, they had a hot air hand dryer...
Unluckily, it auto-shut off after just a few seconds.
I did make my appointment but only 2 minutes early.
Today I am trying to skirt around the slow moving remnants of ex-tropical storm, "Mr. Bill". He is in my desired path but I am NOT riding through him.
Headed west...more later.
