New FXDWG.
Seems with both the wife and I on the bike it wants to bottom out, especially around corners, slowing down a bit has helped but I'd like to increase the spring rate a little bit and get the bike back up a bit when we both ride.
Any suggestions on if and how much I can add?
Who/what kind to buy from also?
We're about a 100#'s over max rated...maybe a few more..![Smile](https://www.hdforums.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Ok, a service manual is high on my priorities, but it won't happen till after I get the shocks installed, so is there anything I should be aware of changing the rear shocks and front springs???
Support the bike for the rears and they should be just a bolt on, maybe a little blue locktite on the threads ???
Front should just be remove top bolt on tubes and slide springs out?
