Recommendations for upgrading suspension
I've only had my 2021 RT for a few months now, and most of the time have been riding solo. Today my wife joined me as a passenger, and I found the suspension to be far from ideal when hitting bumps in the road and other road imperfections. Is there a consensus as to what specific shocks are recommended for a smoother ride?

If you have a RT Limited, the rear airbag should be automatically adjusting the rear height to prevent bottoming the shock. If you have the RT Base, you need to pump up the airbag for the added weight. If your problem is bottoming the front shocks, look into replacing them with Elkas or M2s or modifying the OEM shocks with Lamonster's spring adjusters. Your tire PSI can also be too high but sounds more like a weight issue.
