Damn speed bumps.

Does anybody else here have a problem with the underside of their bike grounding out over speed bumps. When im riding two up with the missus it doesn't matter how slow i go it always catches and they are only normal size humps. Also when i am two up and turn left at speed or go over a bridge it seems to catch my exhaust on the ground and seems like the shock is bottoming out on me. I have adjusted the shock to its max load and fiddled with the dampening but nothing seems to work. Do i need a new shock or does mine just need sorting out a bit....

It does sound like a knackered shock mate. A re-build is still and old shock with new oil, whereas a new shock with new tech will let you fiddle about a bit more to get it just right (or you could loose a feww lbs LOL)

Thanks for that lol.

would you recommend any particular make of shock coz i don't wanna just put another standard one on it.

Nitron are quite good (I have one on mine) It seems to do the job well enough.

Depends on how much your budget is. ABRmoto has a Nitron or Maxton for sale in the for sale section.
