Default Progressive Link Sound?

Hi you there!!!

Last week I've installed a touring link on my RK 2008.

It was more difficult that it seems as my bike is a 5H and the exhaust valve obstruct some screw...anyways after installing I test ride the bike to feel the differences.

The first thing is that there are not more vibrations, that's good.
I feel a little more stability in curves.
But when you ride over some bump it sounds like and old spring mattress...

Any advise about it?

Have a good day!!!
