What can be done to make my wonderful Cyclone smoother over the bumps? Even the forks seem to be a bit harsh at times. I think I need to make some adjustment with my suspension. I weigh about 205 with all my gear on. I think I am about 185 without it. Any suggestions?

Thanks
Mike

cartridge updates fro the forks (guessing a buck-fifty from American Sport Bike), and after\market read shock (7 or 8 hunnert on up)

all prices guesstimates from the recesses of my memory bcaked up with absolutely no research at all

also, the forks are waaaayyyy to undersprung for you . . . get Buell Race springs or Traxion 1 or 1.1kgs . . . .I weigh anout 220 geared up, and the 1.1 kg srpings with 7.5 weight fork oil helped . . . .cartridge emulators for me this winter, Penske shock if I knock over a couple of liqour stores
