Shazaam, needles to say I have the correct rocker and Ohlins race spec shock along with different offset mag yokes, though I intend to swap these for Harris adjustable ones at some point. The mag wheels help get back a little of what you loose in the quick steering stakes.
Tim I've been running the race bike with the standard swingarm in the long mode as often as possible. But again it is a compromise as you have to compensate for the rear hub position with the ride height adjuster, which not only alters your linkage position (notice the latest race rockers have 2 fixing positions, one for 17" and the other for 16 1/2" wheels) but also the angle of the swingarm and related swingarm pivot height, which all effects grip levels. The race arms with relocated shock and linkage mounts along with a revised rocker arm take all this into consideration to give a better set up.
Just wish I was good enough to make use of it.
