Now that you have the schocks on what do you think of them?
I am thinking of getting some for my 650 and wanted to hear if they were a worthwhile mods?

The best mod I have done so far on that bike. Old stock shocks were too soft. These hold up better and all the way around. Was worth it. It did jack up my ass end maybe an inch. Highly recommended. As you can tell from this thread I have to switch out bushings on the loewer end. Mine use both wide eyes on up and bottom. The KYBs came with wide eye at top and small at bottom. Enjoy.
