Took her out and bike did well other then the rear being very hard and the fuel tank mounting bracket broke near the seat. (Easy repair with a few spot welds).
Loosened the spring and lowered pressure to around 60psi, will have to ride and adjust from there.

Also decided to remove the cat, cut the pipe, drilled then removed and Tig welded back together. It sounds much better with the free flowing exhaust.

While I was there decided to raise it by shortening the links, see pictures below. By moving over one hole size I gained 2-1/2" at the rear. Overall height at lowest point of seat is now at 35" and it feels much better. Changing the links alowed me to lube the lower bearings.
