Hi List

Anyone running bitubo's front and rear on their GT 200's? Any comments?

Also, anyone running a Scorpion pipe? Comments? Additional advice?

Thanks

hi mone,
i have a front bitubo only, i am satisfied with the stock rear shocks. mainly due to the fact that they are adjustable like the bitubo. scorpion is nice for add'l performance/sound. install is ok but header clamp is too small and strips out fast. i use a clamp for the X9. mount brackett is a bit weak but does work. i like the scorpion better than the pm tuning pipe.

Ramrezz, could you point me to the process to adjust these? I didn't find it in the manual. Also, I didn't get the 'tool' to do it with my GT (it was used) I've been going solo so far but I expect to be doing more 2 up soon and might want to adjust the rear shocks.

Thanks

CFargo has the bitubos front & rear its a nice set up but not really worth the 500 bucks to make the rears a little more adjustable
