• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Stock RS/SM Rear shock Spring Rates

Does anyone know the "stock spring rate" for the rear shock on the RS/SM?

It sure would be nice to switch out the stock spring to another rated maybe 50-100 lbs more tension. When riding two up and spring preset on 7, the bike squats to within 2-3" (tire to lower tail panel). Two people ,maybe 380 lbs. Large ,"unaddressed" bumps into the road can be problematic! -:)

Don't want the expense of an air shock.
Would like maybe an Elka setup, but would,for now, just like to change out the stock spring.

Carlos, you listening?
Lamont, you listening? Thoughts, appreciated

Elka, you listening? Maybe you've got a spring which would work with the stock shock?
