Spoke to Charles and he will look into getting some 10/8 swift setup, I'll have to see if fortune will sell me just the spring seats, I can't use the blue swifts up front as they are a smaller diameter, so I'll need orange 10k up front and blue 8k rear maybe even 11k F 8k R. Also did some more adjustment on the rear as I think there was some confusion on proper shock length vs spring collar adjustment, doing it the way Charles described left the springs loose at extension so I just adjusted the shocks to have the springs just barely engaged. I think this still had too little spring preload and it appears I was hitting the bump stops quiet a bit, so after talking to charles he wasnt really certain as they usually install the spring and then the shock (also they usually set them up much lower) but he also think the shock may have been too long (so not enough shock stoke at ride height), so now I have shortened the shock as short as I can by hand (so as much preload as possible with just hand tension on the body) and made both side =.

No I'll test for the week and see what I think.
