A bit long to post here but see page 2 on the GT-Rider forum for how I did this mod

Way, way too technical for me but how hard do you push your bike that you feel it was necessary to make such a mod? Obviously, it wasn't just a simple plug and play mod, you had to order lots and lots of different stuff and mix / match with parts from other bikes as well.

yes

Nice bit of technical work has gone into this modification.You could correct the rear by 6mm to bring the pitch back level by installing a shock spacing washer.

Yes I could raise the rear via the shock several ways, or simply use different size tire(s), but it seems as of yet my butt cannot tell the difference.

I understand why it should be higher at the rear and since I cannot leave well enough alone, most likely will get to it in the future
