I am looking for input on whether or not you changed the rear shock's PSI (from what the owner's manual states) after lowering the Vision by 1".
As always, thanks for your input. |

Chesterfield, VA | I lowered mine 2 inches and still follow the PSI recommendations in the side bag. Rides smooth and have never bottomed out. |

| what is your weight and passenger
I'm 210 and lowered mine 2" bottomed out going over rail road tracks. Cracked the inside bag. Covered up with black silicon.
That was with 25 psi now am at 40 psi and bike still is smooth and sits low. |

Chesterfield, VA | sarvbill - 2013-10-28 7:17 AM I lowered mine 2 inches and still follow the PSI recommendations in the side bag. Rides smooth and have never bottomed out. I guess I should add that I did the side bag modifications when I lowered mine this time. When I lowered my 2009 Vision 1" I didn't do the side bag liner mod and ended up cracking both liners. I have never had a problem with bottoming out once the bag liners were modified. |
