Always thought it would look like sh*t on the TT, but it looks nice actually.

Default Bill, I had my perches flipped and lost my wheel inside the wheel well :-)

Considerable difference with the new springs.
I had to put perches back to its originally orientation as well. How many turns did it take to have it lowered the way you have it in the pic?

Default thx! it will help. i wasn't all that satisfied when i put the 8012 in...went back in to remove the

white spacer and brought it down enough. i still have the option to remove the silver spacer which will give me alittle more if i want...but i'd rather save the wear and tear on the anodized perches.

Default thx. yeah, this issue should have been addressed early on...this way they won't have

issues later on. in fact, it should be so you can lower it a bit more...then i would have a few turns on the perch. that's my 2 cents.
