Welcome along to the Busa forum!How do I tighten my suspension up so my undertail stops hitting my back tire
First of all is it hitting the tire when you get on the bike, or is it while riding hitting bumps and accelerating? Stock shock?How do I tighten my suspension up so my undertail stops hitting my back tire
Hahahahaha! Thanks Johnnie . . . made my day lmao!assumoing it is stretched
and
assuming a stock shock on the back you will need a stiffer spring in all likely hood preferably with a better valve shock
However if you follow the advice above from Kiwi river and and ottafish the advice they can give you will be. far more accurate to your needs
I claim pudgy fingers as an excuseHahahahaha! Thanks Johnnie . . . made my day lmao!

You forgot the most important question:Welcome along to the Busa forum!
Take a moment to introduce yourself in the new members section and all your questions will be answered.
We need info about your bike's set up.
Is it stretched?
Is it lowered?
Is it a street bike or drag bike?
Stuff like that is helpful to say the least.
Ah this cracked me upYou forgot the most important question:
When you lane split are your hips the first thing to hit other cars?

Pull it back in or buy an extended tail are your only two options if you want to retain suspension. 12 inches over is slowing you down on a stock motor, so I'd go that riute. Also at that length your stock shock is past the mechanical limits of its usefulness. Look into an aftermarket alternative.I have a stock 2006 hayabusa that's stretched 12 inches had it lowered to the last hole but had to raise it to the middle hole the under tail was hitting my tire I weigh bout 210 and want it lowered back all the way again so I can ride it on the street and drag race

You could strut it, but you lose all travel. Not recommended for street use.Thanks
