Ok, so I have set the sag on the rear. And know the adjustment to make when I'm riding 2 up with my daughter.
I haven't touched the front yet. The "plush" is ok, especially for the many highway miles I put on the bike. The thing I HATE is the over abundance of dive when on the brakes. Which leads me to several questions.
1) Would setting the sag help with this?
2) To set the sag, I need to essentially jack the front up, pull the fork caps off, and make the spacers to lenght, right?
3) If I make the spacers slightly longer would it give more preload to the springs, and would that help with the dive?
4) Would changing the viscosity of the fork oil help?
Thanks
