V85 Strada lowered
« on: November 18, 2024, 06:01:05 AM »
Lowered the strada with a shock-factory -25mm rear shock and dropped the front 20mm. Adjusted the head lights as well and all is good.

Is it actually 25mm shorter or more like 17mm witch lowers the bike about 25mm because of the angle the shock is on.

Admittedly I didn't measure each shock when I swapped them but the difference I had to raise the wheel was definitely over 20mm so if guess a true 25mm shorter.
