a bounce RR to LF

[grendl]

My bike is new and I ride the twisties in Colorado a lot. Sometimes I am 'jamming'. My first few rides were bouncy and I wasn't pleased with the handling in the curves.It wasn't horrendous or anything like you describe but still ...
I guessed( correctly) to adjust the rear shock to about half way. It was set on the lowest setting.Major difference !! Curve lines are exact,a little hard on major bumps but for (as was mentioned) no bucks I have fallen deeper in love with my F6B. Kid you not I had to find another way to hold my left foot,scraping the toe of my boots in the corners and I am NOT the "boy racer".
This thing is phenomenal !

Progressive is bringing their mono tube shocks to market as we speak….Wing Stuff should have them on the shelves by the end of the month….. as stated…check rear shock…sounds to soft!!!

I run 42 psi in front and rear. Easy chair ride it's not. As others have sead my rear shock was almost at zero soft. I ride 1 up. Already have dragged the right engine saver,right exhaust shield, replaced right drivers foot peg feeler at 5000 miles. Put a belly pan on at 5500 mile and am now working on metal removel on it now.

OK, here's something I've noticed and maybe a fork brace would help... or not.
When riding around a sweeping corner at high speeds or fully loaded (the bike that is), I sense a back and fourth "bounce". If I was in my car or truck (anything with 4 wheels) it would feel like the vehicle was bouncing from the Right Rear to The Left Front. It's kind of unsettling at any speed but it's a big distraction at +100.

This has been a characteristic since new. I'm thinking single swing are on right rear and some flex in the front end, or maybe a difference in the front forks. I think I've read that the front forks are not the same. One is sort of a "slave" and the other is the main suspension.

So if any of you have felt the same issue or if I'm totally off on the suspension configuration, I'd appreciate the input and maybe suggestions on how to correct it (short of replacing the forks).
Maybe I should have put this in the Garage section of the forum.

Cant say about the fork brace. But I do a lot of two up rideing.I am thinking that due to load and speed the rear shock is lightly hiting bottom causeing the bounce feel. Mine will do it with two people on it in a tight turn.

Cool, Up on the rear shock and we'll see what happens. Thanks!
