Looking good! Tell me about the Penske Shok... Is it pretty tunable (dampening, rebound, preload, etc?)

Looks like you are really going after the stuff that counts with the suspension... Good for you!

Not sure what that is dangling from the radiator.

Getting close!!!

The penske shock is suppose to be way more adjustable over the stock one. It has preload, ride height, high and low compression and rebound adjustments.

Looking lots better there Matt.Maybe a couple hose clamps on the lower subframe bracing right above the chain??? for the res. to mount to.

It looks like a wiring connector for the front gauges/lights OKD. It does look a little weird right there.

It won't sit against the subframe and the hose is all bent when you put it there. The guy I got it from says he mounted it to the flap at the bottem of the battery tray. I also did some searching and everyone else mounted it there on a gixxer of my year.

Good place? Yes, no?

I am sure you know someone who could weld up a bracket or something so you won't have to worry about it...................
