| Frank your memory still works the Ohlins shock for the SS range (DU235 I think) does have a ride height adjuster built in so that you can increase the rear rideheight by making the shock longer than the standard 328mm.
I am currenty working on a solution to jacking up the back end of my desmo Due 600SS, an couple of hours ago I picked up Senna3's spare shock to take measurements and have also measured a couple of shocks I have, I now have a little drawing of a block that should fit in between the swing arm and a suitable shock. Currently working around a Paioli shock off a Laverda, it has a ride height adjuster built in and if I get things right I should be able to vary the over all length from the standard 328mm up to around 340mm. i did think about popping into work this evening and knocking out a prototype. The Paioli shock has about 12mm of adjustment and at its shortest is 280mm, giving me 48mm between fixing centres for my rideheight adapter |
