ZPS rear shock?

Is it possible to run a zps rear shock with a set of glamis ohlins on the front. It seems like I have heard that it isn't good to run a zps rear without zps or ssd fronts. Is that true? Has anyone tried to do it? How bad is it?

I could be wrong here but I think that the front end would just sit higher than the rear.

I am not sure. Could you do it sure. How would the ride be? Not sure. The thought would be right that the front end may be higher.

Those guys are right.But you could raise the ZPS shock to match the front.It would be raised so high the ZPS would be almost defeated but it would ride just fine.Done it before.

You could always get your fronts redone to match cant you?
I think Jeff @ Quadshop is an expert in that arena.

Well, money will be an issue If I can get by with the zps for a little while I'll just go that route. It sounds like I can. I'm just trying to find out my options at this point.

Well I run ZPS fronts and nonerear...I pull the pre load nut almost all the way off that the cant extend any further when the bike is in the air....Lowered my ride height enough that i can get away with it until i can afford a new rear
