Hi

whats the most preload you should go before you have to go up a spring rate?

ive just wound my stock spring up to 115mm compressed length with the bike off the ground and it’s just starting to feel like front & rear are working at the same speed. 

Maybe a few more mm and it will be bang on but I don’t want to take it too far and cause damage etc  

Cheers

the bike should have some sag under its own weight. usually 20-30mm I would think. this may be reduced, however if there is none, then you have gone too far.

does the bike have the rear link plates as from H#D racing? as many prefer them over stock for a quicker ride and feel.
