Post by ned1 »

Hi,
Been looking for a R1100s, found what looks like a very nice 2004 boxer cup, looking on the forum I see it's the highest seat height and being a short a** I would like to know if a standard R1100s Shock would fit without causing any problems.
Thanks
Ned

It's the shorter paralever arm and shock combined that make the difference... And the front spring would be longer as well...

as the later stuff fits the earlier bikes, i suppose the answer is yes.
you could fit the 385mm torque arm (lowers by @ 0.75") or running no preload or some of these

Thanks, John.

And as for head banger, I love this Boxertrix forum :violent1:
