Re: my green goblin

Re: my green goblin
as far as i know yokohama tyres are pretty good, i have only heard good things about them but never used them myself,
love what you've done with the cold air feed, is it sprayed up yet? and do you have any better pics of it?

The rear seat thing, It is rare that I fold them down, but it has to be said that when folded they do remove a bit of weight.

Re: my green goblin

Re: my green goblin
its to compressed at the bottom, if you turn it around, the bit at the top will compress more and free the bit thats on the bottom now, will free up more, if you get me

Re: my green goblin
have you removed the spring adjuster threaded bit? it'd look lower if you were running 15's instead of either 13's or 14's as you are.
