Here is a how to by Tink, but is for the DLX. Might be fun to look at though. http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=3773

Edit: I think I already posted that link, in this thread no less. Sorry.

Yes, thanks again though for the thread link. I did look over TINKS thread there.
Still trying to determine what the DLX shock length is vs standard. Assuming its a little longer for the additional weight? I think I've read hundreds of little posts and threads and have learned a lot and the next step is to pick up the phone and call a suspension guy, pick his brain, and order some shocks...
70 degrees today and 60's all week here in South central PA so I will get out and do some more 'testing" of the OEM units.

Thanks Kenny, that sounds like something smart people do, but I will try to figure it out...

There is no difference in the length and spring rate between the 2014 Std and Dlx, The only difference is that the Std has black springs and the Dlx are chrome.

Just looked at my DLX spring and they are grey in color, not chrome. Is this not correct??
