756 and the BOB
« on: March 19, 2010, 12:11:36 pm »
Found this picture from last year.  The 756 did well pulling up the heavy load.  Wasn't a long haul; not sure what a long haul, bouncing around, would do to the shock/pivotsl.

It shouldn't do anything to the suspension, I don't think, because that weight is connected to the unsprung end of the swingarm and it's being supported directly by the wheel. As for the longitudinal forces (speeding up and slowing down), it shouldn't do anything to the swingarm pivots that a heavier rider wouldn't also do.
