How many miles is on your chain since you last adjusted it? Did you adjust your chain tension after installing the links? I noticed mine is making a howling sound the faster I go. I’ll have to adjust the tension and see if that resolves my issue.
The chain tension will need adjusting after installing the lowering kit. Let me know how you get on after doing that.
@@clarkstreetcustomsso after adjusting the chain the noise went away. Now it seems as my front fork is oscillating. Liking like like if a wheel isn’t true. That isn’t the case since it has 1000 miles and hasn’t been off roading or hitting potholes. Even if I coast, especially the slower I feel as if the front suspension is hit constant bumps even though the the surface is completely smooth. When I did lower the front forks, I did have to turn the left fork 180 degrees to make it move. I don’t know if that might have bonded anything internally. Any ideas?
@@bucpeeba08 Did you return the left fork to the original position? How worn is your front tyre? A worn front tyre can cause oscillation and bar shake at certain speeds. I’d check all the basics (tyre wear, tyre pressure, suspension settings back to factory etc.). If it is still feeling weird, try removing the front wheel, check the fork movement and that nothing is binding. If it is still not right, you might need trip to the dealer to check the forks. Hope that helps.
What about the side stand?
Good question. Thanks for asking. No issues so far. The angle on the side stand at the standard height was quite steep so with the 30mm drop, it looks 'normal' and doesn't feel like its going to tip on a flat surface. Certainly a lot easier to lift off the sidestand now. Haven't had it fully loaded, two-up yet (still nursing the broken leg) so will post up if there is any issues there.
How do you remove the front beak? Is it only 2 bolts or screws then pull on the beak?
@@martinbaldam6676 Remove the two bolts underneath the beak and then pull it firmly towards the front of the bike. There are two retaining clips which will break free but won’t break. So basically just a reversal of the way it was reattached in the video. Hope that helps.
The two bolts are 5mm Hex just to the rear on each side of the horn as you look underneath the beak.
@@clarkstreetcustoms thank you I'll try that later, thanks for the help.
@@clarkstreetcustoms thank you, finally got it removed…
