I'm not suprised that we can't agree on the suspension thing,as i don't think we'd agree on the kind of trips we do either!!!!!,but everyone should do a list at least you gives you some idea of the person your talking to.

The rest is made up of bar hopping in the city, dodging yellow cabs and delivery trucks while trying to hit (yes, hit) every pot hole possible, occasional ride in the MD/VA country side, and more recently: weekend frustration runs (e.g. Me: "I have to go to Home Depot to pick up a bolt for the PIAA lights I just got. I think I'll take the motorcycle."

Her: "but it's 15 degrees out side!".

Me: "That's OK, it looks like there's no ice on the roads...").



As for the suspension. I don't really have any opinion other then: it works for me. But then again, with the kind of riding I do, it should be more then enough...
