[QUOTE="Bill Lumberg, post: 1339189, member: 87479"] Good stuff. I had serious reservations about mine. I was able to get closer by talking to folks here. But when I visited a forum member who had his bike dialed in by a race shop, and figured out that, even though he was notably lighter than me, they had cranked his "preload" to full on hard, I gave in and cranked mine to full on hard. Much different. I've never had a bike that was so sensitive to having the suspension properly adjusted. My others could be improved by some adjustment, but they handled well and were comfortable regardless (except for the mean streak- which, regardless of setting, approximated a bike that did not come with a suspension). Worth the time and money to get the FJR dialed in. [/QUOTE]
