[quote=Tim Cullis;133030]I'm now wondering whether it really is the raised front forks that are giving the weird feelings. [quote]


I'm not surprised,,, you now have a chopper... you can't lower/raise
one end with out screwing up the geomitrey of the other..

If you have lowered the rear you have now got more rake & trail in the front..
To get it back to where it was before you fitted the links..
you NEED to lower the front the same amount.. you may need 30mm
bar risers to get the forks to slide though the clamps enough with out hitting
the handle bars..

Every 10mm in the rear link hole spaceing = 25mm drop in the ride hight..
