[QUOTE="Jon_PDX, post: 947237, member: 27985"] Regarding the soft/hard lever. If I remember correctly there are two springs on the shock and setting it to hard adds the second spring to the mix. Kind of like adding a helper spring to a car/truck so you can carry a heavier load. I don't have my service manual handy to confirm that's how it works so I'm going off my memory. The bike may feel higher off the ground when you sit on it because the back of the bike will not compress (sag) as far with the stiffer spring setting. Jon... [/QUOTE]
