Rear Shock Replacement

I waited to put the shock on because the bike was due for a service anyway.

While she was stripped down to her valves, we took out the swingarm, re-lubed everything and put Tim's shock on. Bike was put together yesterday after changing all the fluids, cleaning the air-filter, changing the fuel filter, syncing throttle bodies blah blah blah...

I've only had a chance to ride her around town but early indication is that Tim's Wilbers is nothing short of EFFIN SPECTACULAR! You can actually feel how much more composed that rear end is going over pot-holes and road humps. Same thing applies to fast round-abouts. Awesome. We'll see how she does in the twists this weekend. Consider my buyer's remorse gone.  :lol:   :lol:   :lol:
