[QUOTE="woody51, post: 69293, member: 22563"] I took my bike out for the first time yesterday and the thing about sent me over the bars. I was riding in the ditches and hitting field approaches, the part that goes from the field to the road, basically a small tabletop. I was hitting them so I would end up on the road (still learning to jump). When I would hit these approaches the front tire would stay relatively close, a few inches, to the ground but it felt like the rear was about 1 ½ feet up. The rebound was set at 10 clicks out and I turned it in to 6, this seemed to help a little but not much. I thought this seemed pretty slow and was wondering if my sock needs to be rebuilt or if this would be something in the HSC circuits, which I didn’t touch. I was hitting some pretty good moguls (1-2 feet and off center) in the ditch and the back end didn’t feel like it was flying around too much. . I just bought this bike in Nov and this is the first real ride I have taken it on. I guess this could also have something to do with my riding technique also. Could this be caused by me standing up and being too far over the front wheel? Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. ------------------ Kevin 97 CR 250, 96 CBR 600 You Bleed Red so you might as well Ride Red [/QUOTE]
