I think I figured out why my messages keep getting cut off!
I recently bought a used 2005 RSTD with 1400 miles on it. It´s beautiful! It is my first bike. I had never rode a bike before. I did take the motorcycle safety course before buying. The reason for buying this big bike as a first bike is because I am 6-3 285 lbs. 54 with knees that don´t likee to be bent up. This was the best bike for me.
Mt two questions are
1. I feel as if I am bottonming out the suspention when going over small bumps should I add air to the back and or front shocks?
2. At 45-55 mph I get and rythmic up and down bumping is this from the shaft drive or is this normal for bikes?
Thanks for answering a newbes dumb questions.
Big Jeff
