Yea we can hook up for a ride somtime. I've accually been scared to mess the that rear damper, I've heard too may horror stories about the problems with those things. So with mine I'm leaving well enough alone for now, there is a how to on how to rebuild and make them better but I said I'm a little timid. Can't really say I've looked too close at the screws on it, now I wanna go look when I get home..lol. Yea I've learned a lot about my bike over the years one of the reason i like it so much. Kinda strang its not the fastest, or the smoothest, or the prettiest, or the greatest handleing but there is somthing about it you just can give it up.
