Thanks for the info, Greg. I assume that the LM 1000 shocks are 13.25" inches in length?

In return, I got much better ground clearance and it's much easier to roll onto the centerstand. Unless I'm working it on a really tight road, I never touch down, whereas before, it was commonplace.

| Using a couple different lengths of flat iron, I drilled holes at 12.5" and 13.25" center-to-center. I found that the 12.5" fit perfectly, but that the 13.25" cause the swing arm to contact the center stand stop tab. I was hoping to use 13.25" rear shocks to add some additional ground clearance. I would like to hear from those riders who are running 13.25" rear shocks. Did you have to change the position of the center stand stop tab? If you did, I wonder if the lowered center stand is now just as bothersome as with the shorter shocks and the higher center stand when cornering? What other changes might you have made to accomodate the longer shocks?
