wes0778 Posted January 15, 2012 #1 Posted January 15, 2012 Got to use my Christmas present for the 1st time. Borrowed a Carbon_One adapter from a member here in town. Swapped out my rear shock this afternoon. Haven't ridden it yet, but seems the bounce is gone.
friesman Posted January 15, 2012 #2 Posted January 15, 2012 Walter is wondering what the lead is in the bottom right pic. (ok,ok, I was wondering too) Brian
DarkLeftArm Posted January 15, 2012 #3 Posted January 15, 2012 Nope. I didn't chuckle when I saw the lead hammer. Or the skint hand... Not even a little bit..... heh heh....

BFH is always within reach AND Sometimes I think I'll just stab myself with a screwdriver before I even start, just to get it over with.
bongobobny Posted January 15, 2012 #5 Posted January 15, 2012 Nope. I didn't chuckle when I saw the lead hammer. Or the skint hand... Not even a little bit..... heh heh....Yup! Been there, done that more than once...
wes0778 Posted January 15, 2012 Author #6 Posted January 15, 2012 WOW!!! What a difference!!! Put about 50 miles on the bike this afternoon and it rides better than when I 1st got it! Pogo Stick is GONE
Skid Posted January 15, 2012 #7 Posted January 15, 2012 Mine made a huge difference in the ride. Which shock did you go with?
wes0778 Posted January 16, 2012 Author #8 Posted January 16, 2012 Mine made a huge difference in the ride. Which shock did you go with? Oh it is a slightly used OEM Yammie shock, off a friend's '01(I think). Was not leaking but he chose to try a Works, so this one was just collecting dust in his shop.

I just hope I never have to replace mine again...
