Tyre pressures

Rear shock is on my list. I want to try to get one that lessens the hard jolt from square edge bumps. I took most all the compression damping out of the stocker, but I'd like to do more if a different shock would help.....and yes, your welcome to my old tires, ha ha

Yeah, I usually get two rears to one front. Aftermarket rear shock made a huge difference. I went with a Wilbur’s. And a bump is still a bump. It is not near as sharp. But this is not a gold wing. On corners with ripples, uneven pavement, and just bumps, the difference is just unreal. Locked-down, motoring. And that’s the kind of riding I like to do on my Rocket.

That's 10 - 12psi under recommended pressure. What brand / spec of tires are you using? SA gets pretty hot, so wonder if the pressure comes up to 42 during a run. Do you have a TPMS on the bike? I'd be interested to know temps & pressure during a ride & what the ambient is at the same time.
