Makes the bike tip into corners sooooooooooo much better. A whole new bike!
Warning: This also lifts the seat (about 20mm).
My bike also has braided front brake lines and a White Power nitrogen-charged, dial-adjustable rear shock.
Oh, it's also for sale.

Yours has all the required mods then. Plus some tapered roller bearings. Eccentrics, shock, lines and an airfilter and if fussy, a slight needle and jet mod to remove the ADR flatspot is all they need. Anything else is just showing off....
BTW, with a longer shock and the eccentrics flipped, they are actually a handy tool. I can recall being humbled by one along the Ocean road many years ago. The guy had it set up really well. It had immense ground clearance and held a really tight line at full lean. I know as I was ZXR750L2 mounted and try as I might, couldn;t gain any ground on it. I was racing at the time, so thought myself pretty sharp at the time, but in reality, got smoked!
