FK Bumpstops question (stanced guys halp me out!!@)

notnow · 03-18-2014, 08:56 PM

Setup: H&R sport + Koni Yellow adjustable sport shocks
Rear fenders rolled (removed those fillings before rolling) and slightly pulled.

Because of how soft this setup is even on full stiff, I've stacked 3x FK bumpstops into the rear per side and it eliminated the rubbing completely.

I'm planning to replace the 12mm spacers with 15mm spacers in the rear and I know for sure that it will rub on huge bumps again.

My question is, if I threw in 1 more FK bumpstop per side (total of 4 per side), will it mess up my shocks? I will be pretty much riding on bumpstops correct?

Btw, it doesn't even ride harsh right now IMO.

I thought 3 was pushing it. Waiting for others to chime in. Did you get those from supreme?

Yup, they were from supreme.

It'll be detrimental towards your ride quality not your shocks.

3? whoa

You'd be more surprised to see how soft H&R sport + Koni yellow is at the stiffest setting. With 3 fk bumpstops, it finally feels a little stiffer than stock.
