[Blah blah]

After lots of thought and trying in different places, both remote canisters are now tie wrapped to the frame under the seat after removing the underseat storage lid. What I want are some of the rubber shaped pieces that ohlins sell to fit between the frame and reservoirs but I can't find them so the bits of hard foam I've got in there will do for the moment until I can find something more substantial.

Anyway, and with the bike sitting on a pair of axle stands, I appear to gained 5-7mm in height at the rear (or reduced static sag by the same amount) when measuring from the spindle to the indicator above it.

But I may take the rear shock back off anyway to get one of the hose connections altered - it's fairly tight to the breather box (?) and I don't want it to rub...
