I will raise the forks in the triple tree, and the bike's handling should not be affected. The XR650L has a great suspension, with 11.6 inches of travel in the forks, and 11.0 inches of travel in the rear shock. Therefore, I should not have any problems with the suspension bottoming out. If you visit my area, Bill, you are certainly welcome to ride Porky.
