after 45 miles on my commute this morning...

...I can say that having even 1/2" of travel on a swingarm is WAAAY more comfy than running the struts.....I thought it felt the same on super familiar roads near my house, but man, a few doozies on the 5 north today and my back feels like someone put it in a compression chamber, not to mention the weird pain shooting down my right leg to my foot....

anyone got any 10" shocks laying around?

with an actual rigid frame, you have the room to put in seat springs which can even make a slight difference while the frame's geometry will also have a slight bit of 'give' but you can't run springs under a solo seat on a stock frame with struts. it just don't look right.
