I can understand how some guys might want to upgrade the stock setup. Now I pretty much just put around on my CB and therefore rarely have any issues with the suspension. My weight and riding style are similar to the ferret's. But one of the few times that I could think of that I felt somewhat uncomfortable due to the factory setup was the ride I captured in the following video (yes, it's an old one). I wasn't pushing things and yet I can recall that there were times when I wished the bike was dealing with the undulating and sometimes rough surfaces a bit better. When I try to imagine someone running this stretch of road in an aggressive manner on a stock CB100 it doesn't seem like it would be all that enjoyable.
