My education is continuing, when I started out with 32 psi in front tire I went completely off the tracks!
I did some shock tuning and township road riding. What mine seems to like it minimal damping from the front shock allot like BMW telelevers if you crank the damping way up the shock isn't fast enough to cover little multi bump situations.The front shock actually works quite well when adjusted.
When I got it, it had no static sag at all and then I added air press and it bounced allot, a little static sag minimalist damping it keeps up fine.DB
