thanks for the warm welcome guys ! much appreciated !
Thumper: I had the same problem until I switched to 1/16" welding rod I can weld sheet metal if I'm having a good day... if I'm not it winds up with holes all over it !
I use 6011 almost exclusively any more, as I have not found a rod that I like better !
most of the time I am welding with 5/32" welding rod as I am not welding thick stuff
but if I am welding 1/4" or thicker I will dig out the 1/8" but lately it's been rusty old water pipe and 1/8" plate LOL
....
I got my RX4 lowered fairly good now, I loosened the fork clamps and slid the fork tubes up to touch the handle bars that dropped the front almost exactly 1 inch
I put the preload all the way to the top of the shock and that dropped the rear about 2"
so I may need to go more with the front but it will take bar rizers to do that and they should be here tomorrow sometime.
it's got 21.7 miles on it and I don't want to hurt it ...but dang it I am going to ride the thing ! LOL
....
