I weigh about 185lbs and ride solo (not by choice) most of the time. I have 10lbs in the rear shocks and 36lbs in the front tire and 40 in the rear as per the manual. I think the rough ride comes from the front suspension..very stiff. If I had it to do over again I think I might have run the 06 in the ground. It was a great bike and fit me well and had a great ride! I wish I could get used to the 2011 ride but sometimes it just jars my back. Time will tell. I need to change the bars on the 11 also because with the new frame they are farther away. More $$$$$!

 

Congrats and another welcome from New Mexico!

 

If you get a chance, I would love to see some pics of the that purple and black paint job.
