back on the road again today but the raptor feels strange at the front and i think i may have put the forks back in the yokes at the wrong hight,i wrote it down but lost my measurements,so can anyone tell me how much fork top should be showing thru the top yoke.i looked at another raptor today(theres two on the isle of wight) and the fork tops were set alot further thru the yokes and as i havnt learnt german yet i cant decipher my new manual-any ideas-steve

I think mine are about 15mm through Steve - but as she's at mates garage awaiting a water seal replacement I can't get to her to measure

I will have a look on Sunday and measure it as mine have not moved from the day I bought it.

I think the measurement you should check is the distance from the bottom of the top half of the suspension leg to the bottom of the lower fastening clamp.

The manual quotes 190mm for this.
