I did not do all the checking I should have on a set of shorter 412s. It seems they might be too light for a 260 pound guy. I have not installed them yet and was looking for your feedback and experiences. Once in a while I am 2 up so they might see 400#. Seems like I am over the suggested rate, especially at 1" lower height. Should I sell them and move on?

I put a pair of 11.5's on a single seat Speedie with a 140lb. rider and it was a bit too soft and low.
