Do you find it to be purely aesthetic? Does it redirect the wind a bit or just blast it into your face and chest? Thinking of one for this bike.
Just switched to Drag Specialties ride height adjustable shocks . I went from the 13.5” (presumably 30 yr old OEM) shocks the bike had when purchased, to 11.5”. The ride is stiff but comparable if a little rough on the bigger bumps. But like I said I reduced the length by 2 inches. I just ran them with the stock preload as a starting point but will adjust accordingly. The handling/cornering is fine. No change detected. The major difference for me is that I can get a leg over it more easily and can flat-foot my bike.. Time will tell but first impressions are that they seem to be well made shocks in their range.
