[QUOTE="HyperPete, post: 1313482, member: 88962"] Thread revived from the dead! I weigh just over 200 pounds. I set my Gen 1 to the settings HaulinAshe recommended in the 1st post. What a huge difference this simple change has made! The previous owner had it much too soft. Now my front end no longer feels as if it is going to shake itself apart on rough roads, and she's much tighter through the corners. The only difference I chose to make is to run the rear shock on soft. It's a Gen 2 shock, and I think the difference in spring rate is stiff enough to run it on soft when I am solo. I'll switch it to hard when I ride 2-up. Thanks for this very helpful thread! It ought to be a sticky IMO. [/QUOTE]
