I don't trust the cornering and workout with aggressive riding One of my problems might be my preload. When I'm going balls to the wall over ridiculous terrain it seems jarring (sp) to my upper body, not enough absorption. I've tried dialing it in but to no avail. More suggestions....

I have an '03' 220 too. I have two riding buddies that also have 220s, one that had Gold Valves in the forks and one that sent his suspension out, front and rear, to Factory Connection. I've ridden both bikes and they are similar, but the one with gold valves in the forks seemed a bit soft, almost too soft, but that could have been his settings. They both have the stiffer fork springs. Consequently, I sent my suspension out to Factory Connection too for the mods and love it. It costs about $600 for them to do it, but that's a one time fee. Any future mods are done for free. As for the front end washing out; I also had a problem with that, but when I raised the forks up in the triple clamp 1/4" the problem went away. It's a little twitchy at really high speeds, but worth it for the way it turns now. Make sure the sag is set properly in the rear first. Good luck!
