Shovelon - any Noleen update?

So Terry, weather out your way isn't quite what it is "up here". Any update on riding with your modified (backwards) Noleen CrossLink for us? More pics? Anything?

So I WILL give you an update. ::)  I won't be changing back.

 The backwards fork legs extends the front, negating that launching feeling when braking and is'nt so skittery on turns. I have bought a Risse Genesis for the fork which knocks a pound of weight of the fork. Had to send it back for revalving because it was really stiff and slow. Kevin thinks that there may be an obstruction in there. [smiley=disbelief.gif]

 Anyway I don't have pictures of the bike yet. My project 957 is still in the process of shedding weight. I am trying to make it worthy of posting an article in Weight Weenies dot com. Very close though. I thought it would be cool to have a Proflex represented there. Let's just say that as stands now it would not come in last in the full suspension list. :-X

 When the Risse is back on as well as a couple more goodies, you guys will get the first look. [smiley=laughing.gif]
