Two questions....... 1. There is much talk of fitting a 170/80 15 rear tyre instead of the standard 150, what about a 160 tyre - has anyone tried that size and if so what exact size was used. 2. Can the standard rear shocks be taken apart - I would like the springs re-coated if possible...

I picked up a Corbin seat and the seller threw in some shocks and extra springs. Progressive 14 Series (13 inch): 14-1283B and black springs 03-1394/B: 75/120. He worked for Yamaha and used to do testing on V-max. Said they'd fit, but I don't see that model of shocks cross-referenced for the...
