America Very Firm Ride

Bobbob
Did you tell Hagon what you wanted. I take it you have adjusted the shocks to suit. And new shocks may take a fair few miles to settle in.

Bobbob
Worth talking to Hagon. See if they can throw some light on the issue. You may need to go progressive.

What tyres have you got @Bobbob
If it’s metzellers get shot of them cos they’re shite
Replace them with Avon’s
I would also try stiffening up the suspension a bit this might actually give a better ride

 

Bobbob
Another good bit of advice from dilligaf. But talk to Hagon they will help and are very proud with their products.

all manufacturers tyres are massively over inflated,i would try the rear at 38psi

 

Next time you go for a ride pull over and put your bare hands on them
They do get warm but they’ll feel like mahogany
I couldn’t wait to wear them out on my 09 Speedmaster because they’re that hard and were lasting forever so I changed them well before they were due
Avon’s totally transformed the ride

 

Have a look at Bad Billy’s suspension setup guide too, it’ll be worth it to get a good base setting at least.

For what it’s worth, I’ve seen before that shocks set to the softest setting can feel more harsh than if they were properly set up as they’re not damping as they should.

 

Agree Dilli, sometimes too soft actually feels too hard (bottoming) try adjusting firmer and give it a (steady) try, you have nowt to lose by trying.

 

Black ones

I had to have a mixture on mine
One was a storm and one was a roadrunner but I can’t remember what was front and what was back
I think the storm was on the back and if I remember you should be able to get storms front and back for your America

 

DOH .....Cobras that’s what I had

 

Bring it to the GMU
