Suspension

i like to feel the road under me and i like it firm and responsive
many guys think the exact opposite. i say great i wish i felt that way and then i would not have to spend the money
i would say that the cb was plush when i first road it and you are correct
i am fat at 240lb so for me any suspension on these new bikes are pretty bad
as we have all heard before, if it aint broke dont fix it
my ctx1300 was the worst suspended bike i had ever ridden and 50% of the guys on that forum thought it was the best they ever had. i changed that bike at 160 miles, i did this bike at 500 miles
when you know what you like you just know
this is not a poke in your direction Ferret i agree with you, we just look at it differently

No, No, No I understand completely gtmn, and I agree with you too, if you feel it needs to be changed by all means you should. I just thought for stock suspension, for me, this stuff is really pretty good. I would prefer Cadillac plush to Corvette taut, but that is my preference.

On my 01 FZ-1 it got Traxxion ATK20 kit in front and Hyperco spring in back but with those mods it ended up being too taut for me. My 04 FZ-1 remained stock.

and yes it was Stichill. Great day.
