I think the shock is ok but yes it is old. Actually, I bought it from formula390 as the non-rebuilt version because I wanted to save little $, of course being aware that I was taking a chance by not upgrading to the rebuilt option. However, it is significantly better than the stock unit and I'm...
I have played with the rebound and it does slow the rebound but not the comp, at least nothing noticeable. And if I close the comp adjuster (all the way in clockwise) I can barely feel any diff at all. And it makes sense to me that if this shock is undersprung for the RC then it is also...
BTW does anyone know what the shock oil wt is on this R6 unit? I'm thinking about refreshing mine and I might even try a heavier wt oil to help with damping because right now the comp clicker isnt doing much, if anything.

That Husky looks sick.It'd be cool if someone made a road race kit for it but I doubt that will happen.
BTW with 1700 miles on it, so far my RC390 has been great. Except for the stalling problem that is extremely annoying and potentially dangerous, especially in city traffic. I hope the PCV...
I like this mod idea because I'm not a big fan of the loud intake noise via lid removal. But are you sure that is "closed cell" foam? Looks open cell to me.
Hmm I'd like to hear more about this electric jacket setup. Now wondering if there is a universal inner-vest type option that you could put inside a normal riding jacket?
I never really thought about using one before but it seems like a good way to go considering that i cant imagine not...
