Suspension set up advice please

[padlock]

Is 375mm for the rear shock to long? I know it's been done to death on here before but even trawling through all the Old posts there doesn't seem to be an agreed increase in length over the standard 365mm. I like a quick steering bike but I don't want to go overboard with the increase. Or is it just a case of rider preference?

Works well but the seat height goes up and it effects the stands

Think I need to start drinking again as I posted almost the same question a couple of months back, all answers were there. So I'm going for 400mm shocks and pushing the forks through the yokes 70mm. That should make the bugger turn.

Don't stop there Padders. Give it a 16" front wheel too

If you want it to turn really well, put some leading link forks on it
