your 650 with the right suspension is made for roads like the gap.

It's on the list. Emulators up front I could even do before the rally. Shock in the rear is going to take a lot of convincing- $750 worth!

no other shocks work for your bike? Just aftermarket?

Should be real fun muscling the futura through the gap, I think it will be fine for the higher speed stuff on the skyway though. last time I was there I had my TL and railed through there, I try that this time it may not end well

![]() ![]() I'm anxious to see how other people do at the Gap. I've never been....heard and saw pics and videos of the horror stories. I don't want to become one of them, especially since we don't have anything remotely like the curves at the Gap here. I'll be taking my time. ![]()

Nope
and nope. Unless your gixxer rider weighs more than his bike- about two times more ![]() I gather that the rear spring rate on the 650R is about 1200 lbs/in. That's right, twelve hundred. No linkage to make a puny 400-600 lbs/in work like most supersports have. Quote:
