I have 600 miles on my '07 B'ville and ready for the dealer to stick it to me. The bike is riding great with the exception of the shocks. When I go over bumps, Rail Road xings or rough roads the bike is very, very stiff. I guess the shocks are set to factory specs. Does anyone know what can be done with the factory shocks to make the ride smother?

Any and all help would be appreciated.

The real problem with the suspension is the dampening. These come way way under dampened, go to the race tech sight and order a set of gold valves and a set of linear fork springs correct for your weight, (they can advise) and you will have a front end with adj. dampening, and the correct rate. Then go order a set of yss, ohlin, hagon, or progressive, or works shocks. The works are very good as are the yss. The hagons can be purchased with covers for the vintage look, these are adjustable for rebound dampening, and the works and yss for compression dampening as well. If you need to go cheap you can open the holes in the damper rods. and go to a heaver fork oil, this takes a lot of work and trial and error. There is really no help for the stock rears.

The dealer made a slight adjustment and I can live with it.

Ahhh..... You must have priced the alternatives!

(I can't live without a lot of things... until I see what they cost)
