Just got back from 3 hours out.... A good run... dry roads, little traffic, except for the Sunday 'I'm gonna drive 30% below the speed limit' driver..

C2H its an 05 matey  :icon_thumright: yeah it aint been set that great , it feels like the rear is too soft and the front is too hard I know how to tell someone who knows suspension how to fix it , I just can't do it myself ... plus no point touching it at the moment as I have a stock swing arm coming next week so will get it set after that  :icon_thumright:

Corrected for you Nelly.

We did the same, dried out at Windermere and then soaked again all the way back to Teesside
