[QUOTE="rogdeb, post: 1247753, member: 345"] My experience with the rear shock. At 22k miles of two up riding, all bags fully loaded (sides, top and tank bag) the shock was totally shagged. It was one of the factors in a low-side crash we had. Tight right hander, shock bottomed out, hard parts touched down and levered the rear wheel off the road. Semper Fi, replace the shock ASAP with a Gen 3 shock or aftermarket. I went with HyperPro and couldn't be happier. Just my little 2c worth. Fork inners changed to Gen 2 springs and heavier oil.
