I put a new Metz 888 on the front today and disabled the anti dive, I'll give you guys some feedback after a few rides. I'm putting a new Bridgestone on the back tomorrow, I don't usually mix brands so we'll see how this goes.

What does this anti-dive shim do?

Search my friend !!!
Too many margaritas to search my friend...lol
Just ordered my shim...Hope it stands up to the reviews..
Installed my shim today and took it for a spin driving over manholes and pot holes and this shim smoothed out the hammer sound and seems very smooth...Cheap fix for an annoying problem...Money well spent...
I have been reading this thread with interest. I currently have no issues with bone jarring front end responses; but... I may just buy this shim and install it; just for the hell of it.
Am serious.
Will...I wouldnt call it "Bone jarring" but hiting any rough spot in the road seems more like a thump or hammer sound in the front fork area..Initially I thought it could be the plastic fender but now that Ive installed the shim the front end is nuch quieter...Its only $25 and its worth every penny IMHO....
Ordered. WTH... :icon_lol:
That "Banging" was why I went with after market mono tubes !!!Quote:
