Installed the Ikon Shocks Today.

Had them sitting in the garage for a couple of months. The 7610's with the black springs and the long chrome shrouds to enhance the vintage look.
Took about 10 minutes to do, including the time to rounds up the tools
I didn't really have any issues with the stock pieces. They seemed to do their job fine. How much better could it be? I was quite surprised then, on the test ride to experience a more stable feel, less choppiness, with the rear tire sticking almost glue-like to the rough, undulating brick surface of my neighborhood streets. Hmmmm, there is something to this suspension upgrade after all.... Thanks to this forum
With the fork stiffened up, the adjusters turned in so that the top ring is flush with the top of the triple clamp, this little baby is quite the handler. Composed, solid, confidence inspiring. A great bike, made even better.
