2 Up & Setup?

[ddbck]

How many ride 2 up for day riding 200-250 miles? What is your set up for passenger comfort?

I have a Corbin passenger seat and the high back rest. That helps. Also have the Wilber shock that I must say improves the ride but is still a bit harsh. If anyone considers the Wilber shock I suggest you order the shock with a softer spring that Wilbers recommends if you want comfort. Wilber will have you fill out a form and build the shock based on your weight and riding style. I'm 280 LBS and emphasized I wanted a soft, comfortable, plush ride. My shock came with a 190 LBS spring that for me was way too stiff. I changed out the spring to a 165 LBS spring and that improved the ride from stock but again still not what I would consider plush, still a little harsh for me. I did notice the heaver spring improves handling at the sacrifice of comfort. The lighter spring improves comfort at the sacrifice handling. For me I need the comfort. Weather it's the stock shock or aftermarket you have to spend some time to dial in the compression, rebound, and sag adjustments for your riding style. The Gen 2 is a fantastic bike but not the most comfortable for long rides.
