just curious as to know when or should I switch.  I have an I/S and 50 percent of the time 2 up.  I also have only a 29" inseam, though the corbin seat puts me lower than stock.

thoughts or links to strings that tell me the OEM are shot or which model or OEM has been preferred

love you guys and all the tech info here that helps everyone

It would depend on how many miles are on the bike. If you have a need for a better ride, then you need shocks. Stock is 13" but you might want 12.5" to lower the rear a bit. Remember: the shorter the shock, the less suspension travel you have.

Better to be judged by 12, then carried by 6.

When I measured my oem I/S shocks they were 12 1/2"  ???
