Provides a bit of lubrication, yet without leaving grease behind, as it's drying. Oil lubricant and grease will remain, trap dirt and might allow for movement in these part, which you don't want.
Pros: Lower center of gravity, increased stability, better cornering, less counter steering, higher G forces. Cons: Reduced ride comfort on bumpy roads.
Thank you for your insight on doing this as for me in setting up for a passenger
Thank you. Very helpful instructions.
Fantastic Video
You must weigh 100lbs if you want it that soft. Obviously you don't fear bottoming out in the rear.
I cannot get my back spring to move a millimeter. And suggestions? I’ve tried WD40 but still nothing. Currently using a spanner wrench.
Lift the bike to release the tension in the spring
I didn’t know you could lower the rally
You can tighten the 600 Ryker spring too, stiff ride but stable 🤷🏾♂️
Why would you use WD-40?
It is not a lubricant at all it's a Water Displacement solvent.
WD=Water Displacement
