Guest seattlesucks Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I'm 6'6", 330lbs + gear. I don't have a ton of money to throw at this bike, so how can I set the sag and stiffen the shocks to the best possible setting w/o spending a red penny? I'd like to be able to have my girlfriend along for a ride as well... Tips? It's a gen6 btw... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baileyrock Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 :unsure: Buy a Busa! :P Actually you really should by new springs for the front and rear, that would cost you $200 but would make the biggest and best change for you. Otherwise just Max everything out, maybe add longer pre-load spacers in the forks out of PVC. :thumbsup: Welcome to VFRD too! :beer: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the VFR, but I might trade it in for a Busa if I can't get the overloading issues worked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 so where can you get some springs, front rear for $200.00? I am thinking of going that route for a while. I am in the same boat, 6'2 230. Need to stop bottoming out the suspension, ouch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
