[QUOTE="MCRIDER007, post: 422016, member: 329"] The suspension settings for a solo rider of 360lbs is different from the suspension settings for a rider and passenger with a combined weight of 360lbs. While you might be able to find a shock setting that would work, the OEM fork springs are too light for your weight even if you max out the preload. Talk to a good suspension shop (GP Suspension would be a good starting point) or go to Racetech's website (to see what they recommend for your weight) and get some heavier springs before you waste a lot of time trying to find the right damping settings.
