I've had my HP4 for only a few weeks and am loving it. I do notice however compared to my previous S1K it takes a lot more effort to get round corners so on Sunday I had a go with the spacer blockers for raising the ride height.
I'd seen others say that it was a 10 minute job....ha bloody ha..not for me it wasn't!! Ended up taking some of the fairing, belly pan and rear brake reservoir off just to get easy access and also to make it easier when I kept dropping the spacer block. I'm sure it would be easier if I had to do it again.
I put the 3mm spacer in but in retrospect the 1.5 could maybe have been a better starting point.
Upshot is the bike now turns in very quickly and is a joy to throw into corners. Well worth doing.
