Whats up guys! I have a 2015 RMZ 450. I really like most things about the bike after only 5 hours on it (bike only has 5 hours on it too, its new) and I have gotten a setting that works well for me in the air fork since I am a heavy guy and these are fairly stiff. However I am having a problem with the bike pitching forward and back in deeper whoops and in braking bumps, and just on rougher stuff or deep sand whoops offroad. I am wondering if all I have to do is adjust the rear shock a bit, to balance the bike out? All I did was set sag in the rear, but I did adjust the forks to have a higher pressure over standard (190/0/190). I am wondering about the Ride Engineering products that seem to fix these issues?
How does the Ride Engineering set up actually improve overall stability on a 15-17 RMZ 450? I have heard good things on the reviews, but wanted to check here too. I am willing to spend the $1000 on the new rear Linkage, the Triple Clamps, and well as the Showa Steering Damper, as long as they really make a difference. I have seen some people go as far to say that these products make the Suzuki a different bike, in terms of stability. That sounds good, but is it true? I don't mind giving up a little front end feel, for some higher speed stability either, I'm used to Yamahas.
If these Ride Engineering products don't do all that much, I would still have to spend a lot more to get a new bike, and don't wanna waste $ on RE stuff if it doesn't sound like a fix for me. I just can't live with the weight shifting front and rear on the Suzuki in rough stuff.
Thanks for any help
