Front Suspension
Anyone help me on this one?
I'm Riddin an 05 Road king Std and the bike compared to the dressers I've had rides like a tank, I ride solo with about 32 lbs air in the tires, Im not sure I think thats what I had the last time I checked, and the rear shocks I've been playing with that air pressuere between 0-15 lbs, wow what a hard ride, solo Im tipping the scales at 210 lbs that don't help either. I think it's the front end eg, front forks can I have the dealer put in a different weight fork oil or change the springs, or do something?? it's bone jarring when you hit even a ripple in the road feels like its a hardtail. Now like I said I've had dressers and they rode smoother, I thought I read somewhere that the Road Kings have a different fork spring set up?? Anyone please chime in with suggestions or your experience?? Thanks Bill
