OK Knowledge Is power and there Is much to learn.
The changes I have made altho limited have all been In the right
direction.
I wanted to pass along one of the sources I have had Great results
following. It's long, detailed and complex,
It will take you hours or possibly days to read through, Consider This
Info a college course on Sportster suspension and handling.

Take the time to learn from these guys who have spent thousands
and many months working out sportster handling and ride Issues.
These guys get Into spring rates, progressive pro's and con's and the limitations.
They cover damping and rebound, front end wobbles n twitches,,,

The Importance of proper Sag wich Is one of the most critical settings
YOU can alter at no cost to Improve handling.

and much more.

"This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back.
You take the blue pill -- the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe.
You take the red pill -- you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes."

 

Thank you, Osco. Interesting reading. Improving my front is my next project and this information came just in time. Once again I'm impressed with knowledge they have there ... and also with huge amount of stupid and incompetent posters posting there. Why people who have no clue how stuff works can't refrain from showing their ignorance?

 

I hear ya Von Zipper
I get flamed over there now and then but like all forums the power trippers
an the know It all's are to be Ignored..
I like the European Influence over there,,brings a different perspective.

There Is no way around the fact that Whittlebeast and a few others are very
very knowledgeble In the Sport of the Sportster.
