If the rear is bad it will sag a fair bit and will see saw at times no matter how stiff you try to adjust it. Just generally handles like it's all mushy and ****. Also depends on rider mass .....as in weight and ambient temp' shocks react a lot more stiffly
and less responsive in colder weather than warm

No. It's not mushy. After adjusting to a softer setting. It is much better. I guess track bikes are just kinda stiff. I think I was used to my 2004 Suzuki gs. Much smaller bike...Well, it's actually pretty good now. Wish it was a LiL. softer. Then again it does really good at high speeds, so maybe it does have to be a LiL. stiff.
