    Hello,

    The fellas and I are heading out camping on our cruisers this weekend. Weather will be mostly dry. Not too far of a ride. Need to load up my gear.

    The previous owner says he put a new progressive suspension and front/rear shocks on. Not sure of the brand/part info.

    Do I need to adjust the rear suspension to account for gear? I imagine my gear will only way the equivalent of a 1 passenger weighing 150lbs?

    Any tips/lessons learned the hard way for tying down gear/bungees?

    Any tips, in general?

    Thanks

    Hahaha! I’m a rum drinker....amongst other “recreational” fun. Totally stoked. I’ll post some photos of this debacle once I get back. All I need now is a side car for my dog to tag along.
