Have those of you who have installed the high bar kit needed to make changes in suspension set-up?
I'm doing it this week & wonder what to expect in handling changes.

the high bars put less weight on the front than the clubman's. i had to remove preload from the front and add some to the rear.

The front will get a bit lighter I also took a little off the front but I did not have to add to the rear

Watch out for the run of the throttle cables so they don't bind.

turn the bars all the way left open throttle and release make sure they don't bind even if they work smooth with bars centered

I didn't change my suspension settings, they seem good, but the front end definitely gets light under power. It makes a steering damper seem like a good idea.
