I tried fitting my new alloy Falcon shocks on the bike last night. They are lovely, very light compared to the Hagons that were there before, but...
I'm having problems getting it to clear the chainguard. It looks as if I need about 7mm of space, which is a bit too much to simply move the bottom mount over by.
Before I start looking at modifying the chainguard etc., I was wondering if other people had noticed any problems similar to this?
There are so many variables on the Commando, it's hard to know what the problem could be - swingarm, rear iso (or front actually), frame, top mounts....
Oh, the joys of owning a 45 year old bike
