    Low Rider

    Ok, I know our bikes sit low for the sporty look, I am wonder how to raise the bottom of the front up a little.
    I am a big guy and my shed where I park has a short ramp to get in, the bike always bottoms out there, and in other spots.
    Ive set my rear spring as stiff as I can get it and still ride comfortably. If I changed the front fork springs to a stiffer or taller spring would that help or hurt the ride?
    I thank you in advance for any and all helpful comments

    Any chance you can modify the ramp to your shed to eliminate the bottoming out? Extending the ramp and heightening the incoming edge to lower the angle? Seems better than changing the bikes setup.
