That I'm sure, but if it was I'd bet you would sell even more.
Yep!

Do you think its possible to to make a new set of adjustment inserts to shorten the link and raise the rear? Looks close, maybe not enough wall thickness around hole. I think more guys would be interested in doing this for more bite on the front wheel.

Do you know guys that are having not enough bite on the front wheel? I've been thinking the front bites great and turns excellent.. All we have is tight turning around here. . and I maybe raised the front forks up a quarter inch or so.. Are you having problems with turning and front end bite? I don't know anyone locally who wants adjustment to make the front end bite more.

And that's what makes the world go round .... no single set-up works in every condition at every location around the world.

Have you heard of any front end not biting and wanting the rear end higher?

As a matter of fact yes. The first step is to get the preload adjusted correctly, which for mid-west and eastern conditions seems to be about 95-98mm. The next is to slightly raise the forks. Perhaps the most important is to ride aggressively - head over the headlight aggressively - and the front end can stick like glue. A better tire than the stock Michelin doesn't hurt around here either.
