Wonder if I have to adjust mine sag. I heard most bikes suspensions are set for 180lb rider. I am 230lb so would need to adjust it in that case, but from riding experience so far on tenere suspension feels OK.
I dont know the factory setting but after 10000 miles I have the rear shock two clicks up from the bottom softest setting I have moved my suspension up a click each time the side stand starts to ground when i am sat on the bike I like it low as I have short 29 inch legs. I dont find the suspension too soft as there is stacks of travel in reserve and have never bottomed the suspension even on small jumps,
