Stiffened front shocks

[rhansen309]

I have a 2011 RTS and I just adjusted the front shocks. I have had it about 5 weeks and while riding we felt like we were in a boat - kind of "whisy washy". Tonight I stiffened the front shocks just one notch and what a difference. It was not whisy washy any more. It felt great, we really enjoyed the ride tonight. I have seen many other posts about changing shocks and stiffening shocks and it worked!!

Really makes a difference in the ride feel . I'm so happy with the bike now that I changed mine. Dealer didn't want to do it , said I'd lose the sport bike feel. I didn't buy a sportbike...I bought a touring model and now thats what it rides like. Can't believe theres riders out there that like mhaving to slide half your butt off the seat on curves when a little adjustment allows you to instead sit there and lean your body just a little.
