Nitron Rear shock Fitting

I fitted my new Nitron Rear Shock yesterday afternoon, It was set up for my weight etc, So after fitting which took 1 1/2 hrs from setting the bike up on my paddock stand to putting all the tools away, I left it set how it came,

I did measure the sag just to make sure and it came out at 35 mm which according to the manual supplied with the shock is about right, I also measured the length of the shock just to make sure they were both the same, They were,

So , about 7 am this morning I ventured out on one of the two routes out of my village, the road has to be one of the worst tarmac/ pot holed roads in the area, seems like my brain jumps about in my skull when riding the Scrambler,

WELL ! Not any more I still get bad feed back from the front forks, but that will be sorted shortly,

I did the same 3 mile stretch there and back 4 times, the second 2 after a 70 mile run out on one of my favourite routes, I did one run accelerating so it unloaded the front forks, then at slow speed, I really can't believe how much better the bike is with just the rear sorted,
I didn't feel the need to alter the rebound damping, Maybe when the front forks are modified with the new cartridges it may need tweaking,
I managed to find all the ruts and holes on my run and not once did the rear end become uncomfortable,
