[QUOTE="leedavis, post: 1088495, member: 5840"] Give Froggy a break! He hasn't even got the bike broken in yet. Froggy, since you say you're not very aggressive and at 170# you're lighter than a lot of us you can work with the stock suspension. It won't be great but it'll do. Here's the classic HaulinAshe post for suspension adjustment that covers gen 1 and gen 2 bikes - [URL="https://www.fjrforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=14779"]Link[/URL]. That'll get you started as good as any. The basic problem with the stock suspension is that it's apparently designed for 150# Japanese riders. If at some point in the future you find yourself often scraping the peg feelers in curves then it's time to start looking in to after market suspension. You will have maxed out the stock set up and there's nothing else to be done for it. [/QUOTE]
