    That sucks man. Sagging? Springs too stiff unloaded?

    Mine shipped yesterday. We'll see... I hate mail ordering custom parts.

    Spotted @Overlanerd and it looks like he has some shiny new parts under the rear.

    Yep. I won't use a grinder like that without a face shield. Also because usually I'll take the disc guard off. I also use 30db Peltors for everything that makes a noise. Watching my mom's hearing loss and frustration over decades, and then thinking about when I didn't use protection in some industrial jobs I had for extended periods...I am already beginning to get some loss at the lower end at 50. I have very minor tinnitus now. When it is dead quiet in the house, I can hear it, and I can tell sounds are somewhat, slightly muffled in a weird way.

    Same goes for anything around compressed air or gases.

    Shit. I am agonizing over rear King specs right now for a Dakar setup. I'm looking at a custom setup that mounts to the OEM stem mount plate. King/DSM does a 121-Dakar version, but it still leaves a good 2 inches of Dakar droop on the table. So the only way around that is a custom order, which is not the end of the world at all. I just want to make sure I get it dead tits right.

    I saw this King 12/BAMF relocate go flying by. I'm beginning to wonder if I should just do this. But I'd need someone to weld it up, and it's my daily driver, so I'm reluctant.

    What compression and extension numbers does this give you?

    Yeah my hearing is the shits also. 18yrs of doing tile and 11yrs of heavy equipment has taken its toll.
    I'm always saying "huh" to the wife. But pretty sure it's not from my lack of hearing :D

    Yeah....and my wife is inherently soft-spoken, and tends to mumble while turning away and trails off at the end of her sentences, usually when I am in another room or two away, with running water or some other noises right next to me. And somehow, I'm the bad person. :rolleyes:
