[QUOTE="macvette, post: 98683, member: 262"] " if no other tight spots exist" is important. There are about half a dozen Vincents around here which are only ridden ocasionally unlike mine. All but one aside from mine, have stiff front suspension and even prior to my doing this mod, their riders commented on how my bike responed to humps and bumps. A quick check shows that the spindles are badly adjusted so unless this is adressed, you are wasting your time doing the mod or fiddling with springs and dampers. [/QUOTE]
