at 240 pounds i think the stock shock is inadequate. the spring is at least.
Are you saying lose weight or buy a bigger bike?? lol

What shocks are peeps using to upgrade the stock shock? What kind of coin am I looking at?

i set the preload back to 5th ramp & added 3 clicks of rebound. on the forks i added 4 clicks of rebound & the preload i left alone as well as the compression screw. it sticks to the road better. not perfect but noticeably better.
I have the 11 model that got ripped off when it came to suspension adjustment .
- have since replaced the stock rear spring with a Race Tech (170 lbs). Front forks have Race Tech Springs and Gold Fork Damping Valves. I run rear shock pre-load at 8 clicks (one click from firmest). Back end will lift a little under pretty strong braking, but I haven't had any issues on street or track. I may drop a click and see if it makes a difference. I wish I had the Nitron shock, but too much other sh*t getting in the way of bike spendage!
