When 2 up my centre stand scrapes the floor (right hand bends).

Ive been workign away since it did it but will be home next weekend and raring to go out on it, does anyone know if stiffening the rear suspension would stop this from happening?

Ive had a search but havnt found this question before so any info muchly appreciated.

Thanks,

Matt

What preload settings you dialing in ?  cheers Spud  :wink:

I find the oil leaks from the preload adjuster so you can't get full preload, and as the standard set up is a bit saggy that doesn't help.
Mine would wind up to about the second mark before it started to move the spring.

Mine scrapes when I have a passenger :)

I just let it, eventually it will grind down enough to not matter :P

Dont know what the preload is set at but will check when I get back on Saturday.

Got a camping trip coming up so wouldnt mind it sorting before I go as it doesnt seem to take that much lean beofr eit scrapes.

Thanks :-)
