What do you gain from the taller dog bone/shock combination? More range of motion?

Thanks! I've owned better Puig windscreens for other bikes but the one for the 300 isn't bad.

Makes for better turn-in on a stock shock 300 or negates the 15mm+/- you lose with the GSXR shock install.

I've got the Lust Racing +25mm dog bones.
It was easier for me to get since they're in the UK.

Thanks to Dark for selling me this bike. I upped the rear shock preload from position 2 to position 4. I added the 15T sprocket this weekend, also the m4 exhaust bracket (passenger peg delete). I also ordered a new ram mount for my GPS Nuvi 2595LMT. I am undecided on tires it rains alot here in Germany. I am looking at the Pilot Road 3's or DR2's. The only thing leading me away from the road 3's is the rear tire is only available in 150/70ZR17 or 160/60ZR17. Anyone running the 150/70ZR17's? If so pics please of the tires on the bike and wear lines (chicken stripes due to pinch on the wheel). Future mods clip-ons and rearsets. I still need to install the rear Spiegler brake line and All Ballz Head Bearings.
