[ST] First Question/Pardon My ignorance



> Modern machines are designed a certain way for a reason and I believe each bike is designed to perform a certain way and built that way.

True, but with a few notable exceptions, they are also built to a price!

I weigh 200-210 lbs.  OEM, my front end dove like a hawk and once the shock was fully broken in, I couldn't achieve proper ride height even with the pre-load all the way up.  The mods transformed the bike, for me.  One problem us porkers in the USA have is that most Euro bikes are designed with much lighter riders in mind.
