I set my bike to the sport rider setting, didn't care for it, then Iput it back to factory setting and wound up loosenign the rear preload by 2 clicks and thats where it is now. If i have a passeneger or luggage on the back I adjust it back 2 clicks and I'm happy

Gonna have a set of forks I just bought resprung/rebuilt then set it the way I was taught. Then gonna swap the rear shock, thinking Penske triple-clicker and set that too. Just after I get the new exhaust. My buddy Heath taught me how to rebuild it and set it, thats all I need.
