BUMP AT REAR

I _think_ he's saying the rear end is bottoming out on bumps in the road, but not potholes or rough roads...but I've gotten in trouble for thinking before, especially way back when I was married...

BUMP AT REAR

Well if that don't make a new member feel welcome I don't know what will :-[
I think he means his front forks take the bump with no problem but when the rear tire hits it the bike feels like a ridgid frame 1914 Harley.
I know because thats what mine feels like when riding solo , at the setting I have on it now for riding 2-up.
Any sugestions? I just got off the bike after a 95 mile ride and my back is kinda sore from the beating.

Topcat gets the interpreter of the month award..


If thats the case..he has his rear suspension waaaaaaaaay to tight (to much air and or rebound set to IIII) try changing to 1 and see if that makes a difference and if not..have someone check to see if you have a lot of air pressure in those rear shocks.
