Has anyone worked on a better ride for a Roadster
I changed the front shocks to AVO setting 6
Still rough ride
Question should I do the back shocks and if so what setting

My 2005 roadster had those nylon front bushings which used to seize as they warmed up. Once I changed to bronze things were fine.....could that be affecting yours?

Mine are upgraded all round. The ride is fine.
This might help

I still have the plastic Devol bushes but they work well

I would change the rear shocks especially if they are Mr Morgan's cheap one but before you do that get some motorcycle chain lube & spray up the rear springs. I do that annually.

Not sure yours is only 1 tear older than mine.
I have my Avos at the GoMog settings
