Here is a pic - I saved it ...



Oh, honestly i never really looked at it. Must be why the price of true coils or oem style for bc are the same price. Ill prob just remove the fork then put spring on with the collars then fork so i dont have to mess with the top hat.


Eban if i have time ill check it out for you. In this configuration there is also less parts moving for less squeaking

^noticed that too.. Got locktite put on the front center nuts, so that nut won't back up and rattle anymore, as well as the squeaking is completely gone.

This really is a superior setup for these coils.

I like my ride height - sorry gents - 1 inch drop is good enough for me..

BIG PROPS TO R1 FOREVER - BALLER service and top notch quality - hands down!








If anyone needs low profile tires put on with EXTRA CARE - go to Discount Tire in lewisville ... I had to give the guy a tip cause he was so careful... baller service!

I agree with you, I am less concerned with looking cool. For me its all about the experience behind the wheel. Not how much lip the wheels on the outside have. I bought the G with full intentions on not having to do much to it to have a great time behind the wheel. I got tired of having to spend thousands to have a good driving experience. The G without a doubt delivers that on a daily basis. Almost at 100,000 miles now and still loving every minute of it. (Except for car payment day of course)
