Well as everyone knows,I hit another deer a few months ago and had to totally rebuild my bike. I having trouble reacquainting myself with the old dog. First,when I had the suspension done the first time,I weighed 210 lbs (it was just after my cancer surgery). I got used to it and kept it the same even tho' I've gotten back up to 245 lbs. Now that I've had the suspension redone at my new fat ass girth,I'm having trouble coming to grips with my new "stiffer" suspension set-up. I almost broke down and did a track day with a buddy to help but came to my senses at the last minute.(lol)

On a positive note,thru air pressure manipilation and lowering the front another 2 mm I think that I'm getting back into the zone. I felt really,really good yesterday. I've considered removing a link from my chain to shorten my wheel base but am concerned about jacking up my rake and trail.
