I swopped my standard rear links for a shorter set wich raised the rear a bit. Went for a ride but noticed when I stopped on a uphill to turn around on full turn bike felt unstable and fell over with me. Is it me being a kak driver or does raising the rear throw bikes "balance" off? I tried after to do a few tight circles and noticed when I stopped and put my foot out it felt as if the bike was trying to pull back. If the rear is raised shouldn't the front go up aswell?
