I haven't ridden it yet except on the street so i'm not sure on the stiffness, but they have more travel then the stock shocks for sure.

It is a little lower but not 2 1/2 inches like they said. It is more like 1 inch.

Is the 1" with the preload loosend all the way, i.e. 1" lowered is the the LOWEST you can go?

My shock came with the preload loosened all the way and when installed the rearend sticks up. I'm trying to resolve this with Elka.

That is with the adjuster all the way up. But the shocks do sag more than stock so when you sit on it it will drop more than stock.
