Removing the exhaust would have made this much easier but I didn't...

    Has Anyone Fitted an Aftermarket Rear Shock or Done any Fork Mods??

    I like my Tracer and plan on keeping it for a few years yet so I thought it might be worth while doing some suspension upgrades. The original suspension is okay at present but does not have the ride quality of some of my other bikes and it will deteriorate with age ( A bit like me.). Has...

    Stumped On Rear Shock Adjustment

    Firstly let me appologise if i have missed it but i have tried a search but couldn't find this subject. I found the suspension to be quite harsh on the Tracer so adjusted the rear shock to the minimum preload setting, that was a doddle, however i took the wife out for her first trip on the back...
