Blimey - so what about a ride-height adjuster? Can't you just get a longer one of these, or will the standard shock not take it?

Cor Blimey and who'd have thought it. An old pipe and slippers ST owner being able to contribute technical advice to a race series
Obviously, it depends what bike you're running in the series. I don't know about the SS, but for all you 620 monster competitors and the earlier 600's I think, remember that the chassis of the little 'uns is almost identical to the big 'uns and also to the ST.
So, if you get yourself a ride height adjuster from an ST, it will fit your 620 Monster. You can then wind the rear ride height up to your hearts content. At one stage, I had the back end of my ST wound up to the point where the centre stand didn't touch the ground anymore, so I'm sure there is enough adjustment there for most people.
Officially, they say not to have too much thread showing on the rose joints at each end, but I had loads of thread extended and never had a problem.
