Can I add ride height spacers to the 954??

Could be a problem... Some bokes have the upper shock to frame clevis welded onto the chassis, as opposed to bolted. The Honda 929 is set up this way, so I'm thinking the 954 might be as well. Anyway, if the upper clevis is welded onto the frame, you can't add ride height spacers.

Anybody with a Honda 954 know the answer to this?

I think that although the shocks are similar (not exactly the same) between the 929 & 954, you can shim the upper shock mount to add ride height on the 954. The shock has a vertical thread with a nut to hold it to the mount. Shim goes between the shock and the mount.

Don't have the bike in front of me to answer your question as to how the clevis (mount?) is attached.

Hope that helps.
