You will tend to feel the center shock action more thru your feet and the rear shock thru your butt. When riding it, think of it that way, feel for it that way. Make adjustments according to that feel. At least, thats what I do. But, honestly, I have not even really tweaked mine from stock.. Im 240# and a very aggressive rider. I think this thing works awesome. Just had my shocks rebuilt, and I stayed stock. No complaints, it simply rocks. 40th anniversary model, but with GYTR's up front.. Dont like the floaters..
