bottoming out bunny hops? - 762SPR - 04-01-2013

I noticed a small puddle of oil under my bike, turns out I was bottoming out doing bunny hops and the drain bolt was scraping on the ground and had come loose a little. I'm not really worried about the drain bolt but I don't want to crack my oil pan. Does anyone else have this problem? Should I stiffen up my suspension? I only weigh like 175 so it kind of surprised me this was happening.

My buddy said I was getting like 6-8" of air though!

Happened to me on my f4i. If you havnt already stiffen your rear suspension as much as possible. Maybe it ill help. I ran my rear suspension full hard to get rid of any slop and sag too.

OK cool. That might take some of the bounce out when I hit the brakes in a wheelie too. Although eventually I would like to be able to do those quick stall hops but I guess I can mess with it later. Is it the inner outer outer adjustment I need to mess with? I guess I could just check the manual...

Stiffer suspension in the rear made everything easier for me. Most people I hear usually say they run full stiff in the back on most bikes.

Stiffining ur suspension will proly mess up ur bunny hops but better for mostly everything else
