    Bit the bullet and bought the rear suspension. Also mentioned that I got the idea from your utube yoke.

      Yes and am getting a free T shirt too ​!

    Sweet! Looking forward to the rest. Was wondering if a simple rear swing arm stand would be good enough to get the suspension unloaded for the install?

    • @SLIGHT_
      @SLIGHT_  6 місяців тому

      Swing arm stands compress the suspension… so unfortunately that will not work.
      If you have a wheel chock for the front wheel to keep it leveled that would remove the “friend” option. Then either a scissor/pump jack. To release the pressure.

    I bet it's definitely worth the thousand dollars! My booty would love if I had that kind of extra cash!

    I thought the install would be a lot harder. Suggest in your review your test just the rear and again with both front and rear.

    • @SLIGHT_

      I have tested them out this way. :) most upgrades people do the rear only. So it makes sense to split the review this way. Also why I did the rear first.
      Small teaser… Just having the rear is a huge upgrade! Im shocked on how much of a difference it is.

    Hi, awesome video. Never knew that the rebel can be hoisted up by the mid section like that.
    I'm running leather saddlebags with some universal bag brackets to keep them from hitting the wheel. I'm also planning for rear suspension upgrade back there. So just been wondering if the suspension piggy back resevoir would be hit by the bracket during the downward travel, would be awesome to get your opinion on this.

    • @SLIGHT_
      @SLIGHT_  6 місяців тому

      It would depend on the bag. I will have to look into this. Would you happen to know the bag/bracket set up you’re looking into?

    Found out it is cost 1k for rebel1100 ! Wonder do they worst buying!?

    • @SLIGHT_
      @SLIGHT_  4 місяці тому

      This is typical pricing for great suspension, well worth the price dude!

      @@SLIGHT_ I adjusted Honda’s factory suspension many time , never fit to my liking! I might just get the rear for it ! Since I don’t really have the skill and tools to do the front😬

  • @colinglancy4176
    @colinglancy4176 6 місяців тому

    Will you be doing a review of the back ones and if they make much of a difference before you put on the front ones?

    • @SLIGHT_
      @SLIGHT_  6 місяців тому

      Absolutely.

    how many millimeters did the ride height increase by, assuming the mee rear shocks is longer than the stocks?

    • @SLIGHT_
      @SLIGHT_  3 місяці тому

      I have them set to the same length as OEM. The increase is a maximum of 5mm. Not really much to talk about but it has some adjustment there.
