I had Max's install new Wilbers on my GS this past Winter and believe me they are the best investment I could have made for my bike.. Cornering is vastly improved as is every other facet of the ride....
Here's the problem.. The shocks were set by the factory in response to a set of questions that i was asked...and they seem to be fine, but what do i know. Could the ride be even better if they were tweaked? ..... I also had them build the shocks 1 " lower..
What about the preload adjuster in the rear.?. Are there any set rules? .. I have it cranked about 1/4 when driving alone and with luggage and if my wife is on the back if I remember I crank it a little more.. I did notice this weekend that with the extra weight, the rear end does sink putting the level of my eyes looking through the windshield as opposed to above when riding solo.. If I crank the preload adjuster will that prevent the rear end from becoming lower?.. Is it pretty much trial and error?
