Dear all,
I did a small travel last week with my Griso 1100.
I was travelling with full load (me, a passenger and a pair of saddlebags). I incresed the rear spring pre-load and the compression damping because of that.
Nevertheless I think I have used the complete rear suspension travel in a couple of bumps on the road...
When I got back home I have noticed I had a line on each side of the rear tire caused by the contact of the tire with the pins existing on the rear section of the frame to attach the helmet net (see photo attached).
I'm not questionning about the adjustment of the suspension for the weight in question....My question is: shouldn't the rear suspension hit a bump-stop before the tire gets in contact with these pins? I believe with a hard stroke this could result in severe tyre damage, rear wheel blockage, etc....
Has anyone ever noticed such situation?
My rear tyre has the standard size 180/55.
Thanks in advance for your input.
BR,
Matias
