No static sag on shock?
Hello. New to the fire hawk love the invite but I’m not able to get static sag even with the lowest preload setting. Any other Honda shocks that can be swapped into the hawk? Thanks

You need to be on the bike to measure the static sag.

I just got his BD40 shock with reservoir last week and I'm sending my forks to him for rework and all the upgrades.
Be patient getting your wares as it takes time. It's well worth the wait.

Due to budget reasons, and primary use (spirited street/canyon carving) I had my stocker re-valved and sprung by Jaime (DMr) and have been extremely happy with it. I even did a couple of track days and found it sufficient. I also installed some of his cartridges, springs, and SKF seals and wipers. It remedied the weaknesses in the OEM components. can't recommend his services enough. I will be getting a BD40 ASAP just because I'm old, bored, and want the Bling.
