Carrying weight with pillion etc

[coffee]

Just going to chip in with my thoughts ,We toured for 10 years on 2 pan europeans and had about that weight when we went on a big tour abroad if not a little bit more,we certainly knew when we'd got the weight on and that was on a specific tourer designed for big miles 2up with luggage.I think you're over the limits a bit with the Fazer, R6 shock or not but I hope you sort something out . :thumbup
