I have a few questions, this is now my third week with this bike, and all I can say is that my smile just keeps getting bigger!

I have a buddy who has a wing just like mine, he is vertically challenged and he rides the bike with zero air pressure. I guess this keeps the bike as low as it can go.
Is this safe? does this mean that their is no shock action at zero?

I have not found that perfect number yet for the rear shock.

Currently unloaded, just me riding (I am 185 lbs) I have the shock set at 17lbs

With my daughter ( 15 yrs old maybe 100 lbs) I go to 20 lbs

With my wife (she will not tell me her weight) but I bet we area combined weight of 330-335lbs. I have changed the setting to 22 lbs.

Does this sound about right? We live in the country with lots of fun twisting beat up roads. Not much interstate riding yet
I am wondering if i have too much air, and getting a firmer ride than i should.

with no air in the suspension system the shocks will bottom out, not a good thing

So the air in the shock is all absorbing the road, no air over a coil spring or anything like that?

What would the ranges for my weight be?

one up 185 lbs

two up 335 lbs
