I have one minor issue with my 996 - since I am only 5'6", the ride height is ~1" higher than I would prefer. The stock adjuster is basically all the way down, so I bought a new rod that is ~1/2" shorter from the local dealer.
After I installed the new rod, the bike sits perfect, but due to rain I have not got on the road yet.
My question is - the service manual says that the length of this rod from eye center to eye center cannot be less than 10.275". Mine is less - it's over 10", but not 10.275". Anyone know what evil I've uncovered by going below this minimum length?
