by,say 1/2" bycranking down the bottoming knob ?I run my stuff pretty stiff I guess,and have yet to use all the travel.So I figured I could lower the bike a bit by sliding the forks up some.it's a 224 if that matters.I could test it...but I'd probably hurt myself some more...

you can only do this with the orange 223 and 225's, not the 224's

You can only do this on a boxxer worldcup (easily anyway). If it's a WC, simply put more plastic spacers below the air piston - you can probably find all travel spacers from a different RS fork that will work. Make sure you don't use anything metal. If you have a team or race it'll get complicated (need to do the same spacing, extending the topout spring/bumper, however you also have to cut the spring or reduce preload to match).

Either way, don't just crank the bottom out and then lower the fork in the crowns, it will likely get messy when you land something hard (lowers slamming into crowns etc).

yea thanks, I am thinkin about taking up a new hobby since some A@# H&LE lit my mountain on fire. Probably no riding up here for weeks. I am currently taking suggustions for a new hobby

All the best hobbies involve dirt and hills - mountain biking, motocross, rallye driving, etc... So if your mountain is on fire, you might just be SOL... Maybe you can live in your bedroom an play World of Warcraft 20 hours a day until the fires go out...

That sounds thrilling. almost as fun as riding around town on one of those stupid hipster bikes.
