Welcome...

I have an 06 Uly too, you are one up on me being on an 08, I am on an 07. I put 07 fork springs in, which are progressive, to reduce the dive during heavy braking. I also have the 07 seat, which is lower, as ib a normal height :run:

Whatever the level for 2007 was. Forks don't dive as much under braking now...
