Not Ranked
JB,
Thank you!
It is funny what we see in a picture. There is no way to know if your ride height is right by measuring. You just adjust and try it and adjust some more.
When I started Solo2 years ago, I had the frame 4" from the pavement, front and rear.
On these rallies, we run some pretty rough roads. Sometimes, we fly over railroad tracks. After a few years of bumping up the ride height to prevent the frame from scraping the pavement, the frame at the front wheels is up to 6 inches of ground clearance and at the rear wheels is at 7 inches (unloaded). But, looking at this picture as we round a curve at probably 0.9 G's with a full fuel tank, rally gear and spare parts in trunk, and 450 lbs. of people, the tires are nicely centered in the wheel opening. Makes all the hard work worthwhile.
