Hi;Just came back from a 50 mile ride!Bike is a 92,1500 with a Daytona 2+2 car,has progressive front springs just installed and raked fron axle.Bike drive bueatifully love the elctric adjust on the lean too!BUT!THe ride is harsh bottoms as thought no rear springs.Set at 42 then 48 lbs with no improvement?Actually the car rides like bottoming when ever hits bump also.My 47 Indian car set up rides much better!Sure doesn't compare on handling though!!!Bike only has 22K on it but could the rear shocks be shot know they are air but just got the bike and other than new tires haven't looked into to much else on it!Any thoughts????
Just for the heck of it, soften them to about 28 pounds. Sometimes if you stiffen them up too much, they feel like they bottom out when, in fact, it's just rebound.
My GL1200 had the onboard compressor, which I used to adjust the lean on the sidecar. If I pumped it up too high, it rode like a tractor on iron wheels.
Mike!Thanks for the thought guess I keep thinking had to be higher to prevent this but will sure try it next time out!Getting some of our badly needed rain at the moment and have a street rod run to go to this afternoon!Just got it back from my son as was late getting back from AZ this spring.He drove over to the skunk run as was not real nice weather and he had the bike in Duluth so decided best to throw the kids in the car!They still enjoyed nice spot with the museum etc there too!Thanks!
