What do you have your shocks set at?

Welcome to the site. For better response, post your question in the suspension thread.

I was just in for the 5000 mile service on my 2011 FLHXSE2 and my tech found an exhaust gromet had worked itself out of place on the right rear.  No more squeeks or rattles.

I just replaced the new (all everything) rear shocks on my bike for stock HD long air shocks.  I weigh 225 and after 5000 miles could never get a good ride out of the bike and I tried every setting from Low to High.  It seems quit a bit better now but time will tell.

Same here...once on my Road King which really perplexed me for a few minutes (repositioned/lubed it) and once with my SERG.  You need to check position once and a while as they can migrate.  Its the rectangle rubber grommet the rear of the muffler hangs on.
