[QUOTE="A Nut, post: 163855, member: 2005"] Message directed to Peter Holmes, Hi Peter, I tried to fit a standard length D rear unit but realized that because of the position of the RFM pivot on a Comet compared to a twin it resulted in the bike being quite a bit higher than a D twin. I had to have the the damper rod shortened (I can't remember by how much, 10mm seems to ring a bell. I am using a Protech shock ) . I then had to shorten the legs on the stand. I can show you when you come to collect your seat frame. By the way could you please email me with your contact details as I don't have any way of contacting you. Brian [/QUOTE]
