I definately agree with the Bella issue from what you have said. I also agree the shocks I put on Wendys bike are not much if any improvement over stock. I used them for lowering purposes but they do the job. I will also add she never rides 2 up since she is a new rider. The story may be different if she did I couldn't speak to that.

I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains.
