[QUOTE="Bungie, post: 451322, member: 11700"] Much thanks Jeff! I bought my 04 a month and half ago and have been enjoying it so much, I never did get around to tweeking the suspension. The fellow I bought it off of (gotta be careful here, he's a member of this board) is uhm.. er.. stout. His setup, was sport bike firm, which makes sense for his weight/style of riding: Front: Preload: 1 Rebound: 4 Compression: 6 Rear: Preload: Soft Rebound: 4 Well the rain finally stopped and while waiting for the roads to dry off, I gave the settings a diddle based on your specs. VERY nice. Much more compliant for my weight (165-170). I think I can back down the front preload another notch, but really, its very close where it is. No wobble in high speed sweepers, low speed the bike feel planted. If we ever should meet. Beverage is on me. [/QUOTE]
