DOGBONES

Post by payne3400 »

Has anyone ran 127mm dogbones as described in the wiki????

Was just wondering how it effected the bike's handling/posture and how the bike looked with the higher back end???

It definatly feels different. You probably won't like it at first. Its hard to explain exactly what it feels like, but the bike likes to dive into turns easier. It's like it takes less effort to lean. A few times around the block and I really began to like it. Been riding like that for about 3 years now. The downside is that your high speed stabilty decreases a bit. The wind knocks you around more. I'm not a big fan of highway riding anymore.

iv got mine on 135mm center to center.
127 seems likes it would be really high and make you unable to flatfoot.
I guess its not that bad when your front isnt lowered 1 1/2".
so the way mine is with the lowered fron and 135mm in the rear, it should be the same as your guys 127.
you guys should really try lowering the front and using 135 rear. it gives it the proper height.
I dont know if you guys have noticed but the fzr sits really high.

how much does the fzr lean on its kickstand with 127's?
