for your input.
The first 4 pics are taken from video, the last three from Mrs.

Looks like a perfect fit.

Yeah, that suspension.. I am totally confused but I keep looking at
the manual hoping it will jump out at me. I have a couple of guys who
said they would help me out the first time, but they have not been at
the track yet. It is getting pretty late in the season so I don't know
if Mike (Factory Connection) will be at the track today, he has been
there on thursdays during the racing season, but the numbers are
dwindling there lately with the change of the weather.
I am putting on my better glasses now and going back to the manual.
The father of the NEMA A class champion, and a couple of others have
told me it would be easy. Just set the preload and go full soft on the
other settings, remembering that The Mouse is slightly over 100
pounds. Looking through the manual it seems they are reccomending
special tools again, but as I learned with the TTR clutch, a good
clean sneaker is just as good as a clutch tool anyday;)

Oh, and I forgot to answer your question. As of now, she is just
loving the suspension..

Looks like a much better fit on a MX track. But hey, when she improves
to the capabilities of the bike and you need it to go faster, here's a
quick and cost friendly way to make that green machine go faster. Go to
Walmart and buy a can of red paint. Paint the bike red. Put a Honda
sticker on the tank shroud. Guarantied to increase 5 horse power. Just
kidding....
