Has anyone tried the 30mm jack up kit on their 98 99 900rr? im thinking of getting one but wondered if any one has tried them, and if it adversly effected the handling?

 

well no one has replied yet so i've gone and ordered one! ment to improve steering response, time will tell!! I will post and let you know what its like with pics for any of you that may be intrested! (when it gets here!)

 

You should have all the adjustment you need moving the forks in the trees and/or setting the proper preload/s. Can't think of a reason why I would wanna jack the rear end. It will make the steering a hair quicker but at the cost of raising your center of gravity.

Hmmm.

 

I set the preload up 1 notch on my rear, It steers better IMO

 

Well i've fitted the new 30mm jack up kit from lust racing. pretty easy to install, makes the bike definately turn in quicker and puts your weight more on your wrists. all in all i think it feels a lot better on bends, however i've not rode it at high speed yet so thats where the real test will come in. i think it looks better too. i'll add a pic when its light tomorrow so you can all see the result.
A couple of things they dont tell you before you buy it that are well worth noting before fitment if anyone gets one is 1. you will need to move your exhaust outwards from the bike, just by 2mm, so that it clears the swing arm. 2. you will need to move your back wheel back a bit to take up extra slack that it puts in the chain. Apart from that so far so good!

 

here it is, jacked up. subtle but big change if you know what i mean. the one on the road is b4 jack up, one infront of wall is jacked up.

new indicators should be here today, and putting the hugger on. iridium screen and gp front fender to come yet.

 

dont forget to have your head lights alinement done before you ride in the dark . you will only be able to see a few feet .

 

sh*t! good point! i dont ride in the dark but i better get that done. im putting her in for some new boots and a service soon so i'll get them to do it.
