Just wondering. I was riding thru a canyon today, hit some bumps (rough asphalt) and the Speedmaster felt like it was flexing in the middle and actually felt like it was clunking the suspension instead of absorbing the shock. I never noticed before. Do I need to get to a suspension shop?

Are the rear shocks set too soft? Sounds like the shocks are bottoming out.

You were right Saxtron. Adjusted for a better ride. On a side note, a thread on another site almost the same as this garnered 34 responses. I appreciate yours sir!
