Just lowered my xr to 800mm seat height

[Wondershunter]

I just picked up my bike from Nitron who have made a new lower shock & spring to my weight , what an incredible transformation, so much better & I can get my feet flat on the floor, it is now 800mm seat height (low seat fitted)
The side & centre stand are still fine

Interesting!  What were the damages......er, financial reimbursement, for that bit of work?
What brand of shock did they use?  Or did they create their own?

[Wondershunter]

I loaned them my bike for a week as a development bike so they gave me 50% discount but the full price of my shock would of been around £400
The company is Nitron in Witney oxford and they are very helpful, they will ask your weight with all your riding gear on & make a bespoke unit for you.

Wow, that's a pretty nice price!

Thats interesting.  I've just bought a new XR but its too tall and hard.  What weight /height are you if you don't mind me asking?   I'm 65kgs/5'7" and wondering if I should do the front springs as well as the rear?

cheers

Nitron make great shocks, I had a Race Pro on both my Street Triple and Daytona 675r track bike.

Hi Wondershunter, i am wondering if your bike has ESA and electronic ride modes.  If so how did Nitron disable the electronics on your bike ?   

the shock looks great but my worry is disconnecting the electronics on the bike.

Hi my bike is a non ESA model, but I would suggest you contact Nitron to see if he do a shock for yours.

Cheers
