[QUOTE="Uncle Hud, post: 1396428, member: 29492"] Not so fast, brother! My normal setting is 1-up with luggage, hard, for my almost-every-day commute -- and it's just a briefcase and me. The ride goes from smooth suburban avenues at 30 mph, onto I-75 into Midtown Atlanta at 70 mph, and then into the City streets at 30 mph or slower. I like the stiffness on the freeway due to the occasional need for hard braking, and I need the stiffness in the city for handling potholes and steel plates and really rough pavement. Make sure your tires are at 42 psi or higher; low tire pressure can negate a lot of what the suspension is trying to do. [/QUOTE]
