    Welcome to the family. Don't know the answer. I just tighten my linkages up as tight as I dare and check them for a week or so. Do hit the upload a file button bottom right corner and show the inmates the steed.
    Regards & Ride Safe.
    Joe.

    Hi joe,got some torque figures and did what it said but i think there too tight. took it out for a spin(necessary journey) but i think the suspension seemed as though it wasnt returning back to start position. slackened the bolts off and suspension literally sprung back into position. will try tightening not as tight. cheers, mick
