anyone use 1" longer rear shocks on a cb750?

I was going to get a few things to measure the trail on my bike and figure what it would be after making changes but was curious has anyone put 1" longer rear shocks on their cb750 and notice a significant difference in handling? I understand steering will be quicker but maybe less stable at high speeds but wanted to hear any first hand experience.

thanks that's one of the links I was originally going to use.. I was just looking for first hand experience.

I can't give you that. The calculator can give you a really good idea how much you are affecting your geometry.

yes, thats why i was going to use it but numbers are numbers and i still wouldn't know how a trail of for example 3.5 ish would compare to 4.5 while riding.
