    I was going through a parking lot and went over a speed bump, and my RadFlos bottomed out. I have them set to a little over 3" lift, so I do need to lower them a little bit. But what the heck???:mad:

    Maybe I shouldve gone with the extended length Icons?

    Were those speed bumps the intense kind that are painted a solid color or even worse yet...striped?

    I have 4" of downtravel, but that's with ext-travel Icons.

    Looks like the Rads may be limiting you if their stroke is the same as stock.

    Yep! I think so.... Thats Gay!
    the only reason i went with radflos was the price and the on road ride is better then icons. they have a #650 spring and icon uses a #700.
