I think it is +1 on each side. Title: Re: Question about spacing on my Raptor Post by: T2 on May 10, 2005, 10:00:35 AM 2" on each side.= 4" total

This is one of the reasons I like this place. So much knowledge!!! I guess I can leave the front at +2 and widen the back +1 on each side right?

Title: Re: Question about spacing on my Raptor Post by: Nightbreed on May 10, 2005, 02:25:30 PM It doesnt hurt to run the rear a touch wider than the front. Helps reduce tail swap on the rough stuff and cornering.
If the rear is less than equal to the front, you will have a problem in corners more than anywhere else with the bike trying to tail swap.
