I need advice from the experts please. I ride an XB12R (2004) and have set the suspension up for my fully laden weight. The bike feels hard when riding...hitting a bump etc. really jars the bits, and if I hit a pothole, mid bend, it really jars the bike. I want to try softenning the suspension a bit to see if it helps. Do I re-set it as if I am a slightly 'lighter' weight :?:

I'm now running my 12s at pretty much the lightest weight rating (I ain't) - and make sure you dial back the settings from the right end of the dial - I read it wrong for a while :oooops:
