apparently i suck at adjusting my suspension..but still after all i have done it is too rough by far and does not seem stable in hard turns with even a small dip or bump.
heck,i did better on my stock 1100 katana in the turns!
i know the short wheelbase is a bit tricky so i am guessing i need to revalve,use lighter oil..but probably not springs.
i am 160 lbs. and ride on harsh tight roads at high speeds often..the bike is ok on nice smooth corners..but a slight bump in a corner and it acts like i need a steering stabilizer. scary!
anybody got a tried and true set up or place you trust to get the right valves,spacers,info and getting the correct fluid etc?
i can rebuild it but need help with the correct info and parts..thanks!
