I'm not quite as heavy as you Serius but this video shows what my suspension does. The vid looks like it squats more than 2.5 inches but that is all it really does.

i may have to call him. and kaw jockey that sounds like what is happening because its doing both of those wheelie or spin. U know how some bikes are kinda soft when u push down on them. Was mine goes down the inital inch. It wont move any further. i can bounce on it and it doesnt go down any further. Maybe its a combination of both the coil and shock.

I can tell you that mine wont move more than an inch either but it squats quick with 180hp to it.lol

Pine Valley in Diboll is supposed to have a tnt day on New Year's day. I am not sure I can make that one but if I go you can come up and we can watch what is going on and maybe help out.

I'm 135 pounds in my bikes watch 3 and a half inches. I have a Litz shock and it is very stiff. The bike needs to squat however like Lee said if it rebounds to fast it unloads the tire. The whole idea behind the shock is to squat less than the OE shock and rebound much slower. My shock takes literally like 2-3 seconds to come back to the top when I push my tail down by hand...good luck man!!!

You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

Best i can see is not coming down much in the rear , looks stiff to me .. One other thing i see is you upsetting the bike by putting your feet on the pegs to fast .. Do you have and air shifter ? If you do wait till second gear before you pull your feet up .. If you don't have an air shifter get one ... ____________

yes i have a electric shifter. Yes i will keep that in mind to keep my feet down till second. Ur correct it doesnt squat much. Mine takes about 1 second to come up. Thats not a full squat cause i cant push it down to make it squat by hand.

I have the shock from lonnie. It's not a bad product but I don't think he has ANY idea how to set them up. I wasn't going to say anything but since this has came out, don't trust his settings. He sent me my shock with all the adjustments turned all the way out, not enough nitrogen, and the spring all the way loose. You need to find someone locally that knows how to adjust them. BMC isn't the one to talk to about that.
As far as you having too much spring, I don't think you do. I'm 215 suited and I have the stock spring tightened all the way down and it's not enough. I sold my Racetech spring before I knew this.

thanks for saying something eklipse. I have the heavy race tech coil on mine. I have not cked his settings. I know one thing. The back of the bike wont compress down. I will ck the damping to see if thats why it wont compress.

I go to work in the dark, and get home in the dark, but maybe this weekend I can see where I got mine set to help get you a little closer.
