Adv 350

Could well be, twin shocks will never be as good as a rising rate mono shock

Also, they’re only suspending the chassis, the motor is unsprung, so the springs will be relatively light but will need a fair bit of damping to minimize bottoming out with a rider and passenger, factor in relatively short travel and it’s not surprising they’re easily overwhelmed

I wouldn’t put a pillion on it ITS FOR ME!…….I’m a fairly robustly built chap as well so another person may well overwhelm it.
 
Understood. I do wonder if it feels poor because I’m used to being on the Goldwing which has good suspension

I came from a DL650, not the world's best suspension but more travel and single shock. I wonder how the 350's suspension measures up against a bike with similar travel suspension?
 
Just put these on the Forza, not set them up properly yet but they’re an improvement straight out of the box

Not tried YSS before but read good things about them so here we go

I would have preferred without the red anodized bits but they don’t look so bling now they’re on :hippy

A similar style to the one on the ADV
 
Yes, piggyback gas shocks, these have adjustable preload and 30 clicks of rebound damping adjustment

The quality is visually very good and they fit perfectly and easily, pleased so far

Look good. Costly ?

366 euros from Motocard

Until now you couldn’t get them in Europe but they’ve just started doing them for a few scooters, they’re model specific

Oh yes, they’re also length adjustable by 10mm but I don’t think I’ll need to touch that, they’re the same length as stock

That seems reasonable, if they’re any good.
 
I’ve just realised why my hand are cold. The hand guards are upside down. :blast. What a clown, I’ve just spent 2 hours looking for extensions.
 
I took one for a ride earlier and even though it was peeing down enjoyed the 20 miles.

If I can get a reasonable trade in for my Husky FE250 I'll buy one.

I think the red is very understated and they look well on your Forza:okay

Certainly looks better .
 
That looks a lot better than the original. I’ve been looking for one this week. None in stock anywhere.

I ordered a red one today for mid May delivery.

Love the red . My dealer has a cancelled order . Tried to get wife to have it but it’s just a tad heavy to manage on a daily basis compared to her 125
