Some more info for the more experienced
First off, the shocks feel VERY stiff from the "fender" test. On the rear shocks there are 6 1/4 sweeps for extension, I am at five. I couldn't budge the back (maybe 1/2 inch?)at full stiff, so there must be something left.
Afco no longer rebuilds my version of shock and has no parts left
The graph attached was the first pass, and my throttle stop was goofed up and it went almost full throttle before TB release. You can see where it hit the rev limiter instantly ,or almost, and I lifted. I then stabbed it again full throttle and ran it out.
It looks to me as if it tolerated minimum rpm on the second hit? I think I was about ten feet out when I hit it the second time.
