Default Best 2 adjustments for less bounce.

I was riding kind of fast over some rises and dips in the road, and at higher speeds, like for theory only 142, the bike would,
theoretically kind of Cadillac.

By that I mean, float and spring up and down.

What are the two best adjustments to make to cure high speed induced waterbed like forks and rear spring on 04 RR?

Default RE: Best 2 adjustments for less bounce.

1. stiffer springs. unless you are 150lbs or lighter they are too weak for your weight.
2. set the sag
3. compression once the sag is set
4. rebound once the sag is set.

go to the www.racetech.com webpage to find the ideal spring rate for your body weight and then start looking for how tos on compression and rebound.

or take the easy way out and take it to a suspsension tech to dial in. chances are you will need to take it to one anyway to respring
