I have just fitted to my 09 XTX, XTR suspension links, they are 5 mm longer than XTX. I was under the impression that the side stand had to be shortened, but it seems to lean at the same angle as previous, from what measurement I took before installing the links it appears the bike is possibly three quarters of an inch lower at seat height. In view of all this do I need to lift the forks in their clamps, if so by how much, thanks in anticipation of answers.
