Riding two up. It's killing my knuckles

[BusaWhipped]

Maybe I am doing something wrong, I have never had an issue with my bike or my suspension, and I think it is because I simply dont know what to do. My bike feels stable at speed and turns with the best of them. I have to check and make sure my wife is still back there because most of time, I cant tell she is on the bike. Should I be concerned? I asking, seriously, should I be concerned?

I'd love to spend a working on the bikes weekend with you. Maybe next time you're up in STL you'll stop in

My friend I promise I will come over next time I am up that way. I may even make a special trip.

I run the stock settings with just me, or me and my wife on the bike...no probs so far

Have you checked to see how much of the shock travel is being used when you ride two up? Are you bottoming out with a passenger?

The adjustment collar is all about adjusting your range of travel. Turning the collar down does not make the spring stiffer, it only raises the rear of the bike.

My experience with the busa has been the stock shock set up rides two up just fine for casual and spirited riding.

I had no problems riding two up with the stock set-up, but I did spend the $1000 for her own bike....now I don't even know where the back seat is now.

Wee for two up, Brit and I combined are like 250lbs so I have been able to make it work but I completely agree an easier set up would be much better.

Nice pic. You are laying it down. Sweet
