[QUOTE="Bounce, post: 38863, member: 257"] I stated my weight (with riding gear) and then weight (with gear) and stated I wanted it designed for "sweepers". That may have been all well-and-good for when I was riding a Wing. But with the FJR, what I was thinking were "sweepers" was really "twisties". The shock handled the max load I defined (and did it very well) up until a trip where I got fairly agressive. I had the preload adjuster dialed up to near max for the load and there wasn't anything left for that technical stuff. What I need is to dial down the preload for me and set it to dead center for me and loaded luggage. That then gives me more pre-load to dial in when the going gets tough. But that's my opinion.
