Seeking opinions--
Generally I ride alone in my rig (so, light-weight). Recently I took it on a trip with 5 other guys and enough gear each for one overnight (so, I'm still thinking relatively light-weight, as things could go...right?). Along the highway, though, anytime there was unevenness, I started to get the slow floaty-up-and-down from the rear suspension. It wasn't violent, and it smoothed out if the road did, but it was definitely there.
My question, I guess, is, is this the beginning of the end of the shocks back there, or did I simply reach the capacity of the stock suspension system that I have in there (and which I cannot vouch for in terms of age)?
Kind of random, but I'm trying to look ahead.
