[QUOTE="qmotion, post: 253741, member: 1395"] We are actually drifting away from the purpose of this post. If your FJR rides smoother than your Goldwing then the Goldwing's suspension isn't set up right. Maybe you do need to change the rear shock to match the Traxxion front. What I'm attempting to do is have my FJR setup properly with my heavier weight considerations. Heavier vehicles ride more comfortably than lighter ones. It is assuming that the suspension is setup properly for which ever weight vehicle. A Greyhound bus with it's air suspension setup properly will ride better than a Rolls Royce. An aircraft carrier will ride smoother in the water than a speed boat or a 300 foot yacht. It is due to the heavier weight. What ever adverse forces you are dealing with have to first go against the weight of the vehicle. Heavier vehicles have greater resistance against turbulances and road imperfections or any outside forces that try to move or change the direction of such vehicle. PERIOD [/QUOTE]
