Default Suspension

This is how I want my suspension to react to bumps:

not too much to ask for, we've had telescopic forks since 1935, surely it's about time they worked better.

Default Re: Suspension

would be nice. i have really nice suspension but not as plush as that. it took a long time messing with shim stacks and oil viscosity to get there.

a lot of why motorcycles dont have plush suspension is the added weight and patens.
