That's too funny!   ;D  We're a geriatric riders site.  Next thing you know, someone will make a video of themselves inching their way to their bike using a walker.   ;D

Sooooo...16.14285714285714 stone huh? About the same as me. I have 30 psi (206.84271 Kpa). I have the rebound damping set at 4 to help control shaft jack and try to prevent the rear from rising too much in a hard stop. It rides ok, not as well as my TourGlide, but it doesn't weigh as much, and the angle on the shocks has an effect on their compression rates. The FLT rear shock units are straight up and down with softer initial spring rates.

Thanks Troll...I didn't realise you colonials spoke 'stones'..I spent some time converting from stones to lbs so you would understand me..for europeans I have to convert to Kgs which are a whole new world for me..

Anyway, that's just what I wanted to know..

John.
