[QUOTE="Redfish Hunter, post: 1330292, member: 28773"] Kitt, your A vs ES question has been asked many times since 2014 when we got the ES version. You might try doing a search to review those old threads. (See how nice I was?[IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/smile.png[/IMG]) If you do not like to fiddle with your bike, get the A and just Set and Forget. The A suspension has to be cheaper to repair and replace. The primary benefit of the ES is to be able to quickly and easily change settings based on different road conditions and load conditions. For example, I might set the preload to single rider and the damping to Soft -3 for a run down the Interstate and then switch the preload to single and luggage and the damping to Hard +3 for a blast down a curvy road. Or I can compensate for luggage, or a grocery trip, or a fat passenger. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
