[QUOTE="DezzertRider, post: 1184401, member: 86844"] Living here in the west where we don't get all kinds of freezing weather to create pot holes and ripples in the pavement, I was wondering if most of the suspension upgrades are done by folks back east and up north? I'm sure I would probably notice the improvement of a $1500 rear shock, however the roads out here in the west are overall smooth everywhere and I can't remember in recent memory anytime that I had to dodge a pot hole. I grew up in the midwest (Kansas City, Mo) and remember the "pavement"if you want to call it that. Bumps, ripples, and patched over pot holes everywhere. I would suspect if I lived there again, I might be looking for a suspension upgrade? So, would I really benefit from a suspension upgrade? $1500.00 - $2000.00 buys a lot of gas and other farkles.
