I always thought the fouling was done on the fender side not the shaft but that makes sense.
Why not simply kick the piggyback out so that is perpendicular (or at least not parallel) to the bike? Not like they would get in the way up there.
Yeah heat is my main concern, mostly want to prevent the roads from quickly (or if possible, at all) degrading performance. Right now it feels like i don't have shocks if I even get 2 or 3 bumps close enough together. (granted this could also be a downfall of the shocks in snapping back too slowly but these bumps are 10ish ft apart so I don't think so)
Just shopping around most standard shocks (what I'm calling shocks without remote res) go up to 250 at most... so going 20% over that makes me nervous. Or at least it makes me assume i wont get optimal performance out of the shock.
I have contacted GAZI, they can only do a custom remote reservoir solution for R3 which I was told would be significantly more expensive (understandably) than their OTS stuff.
Huh, I hadn't thought about how much more a drive shaft rear end would way but that is a good point. With so much more there no wonder a lot of these places don't have anything for R3.
