SUSPENSION WITH 6" OVER ARM



I was just wondering what those of you with 6" over arms
have done with the rear suspension to compensate for
the additional leverage. Until now I have swapped out
my rims/tires and swingarm to go to the track. I would prefer to leave the 6" over arm on the bike full time. The
problem is that I ride 2 up with my wife quite often. I
have cranked my spring preload a few turns but it still bottoms at launch occasionally.The rear of my bike still
sits a bit higher than I would like it to also but, to go any lower would just increase my problem. If I never rode 2
up I would probably just live with it but, that is not the
case. I'm thinking stiffer spring or aftermarket shock?
What do you think????

Use the hyperpro shock,it will do things for your 12 that I can't even put into words,major improvment,just what the 12 needs,you could re-valve your shock too,but it's nothing compared to the hyperpro.
