Sounds like I need to try new tires first. The suspension is not bottoming out, I just feel like I've reached the limits of its usefulness.

I have some clip ons from Sportisi. The forks stick up a total of ~1.5". I don't intend on raising it back up as I prefer the riding position with the new clip ons vs stock bars.

I feel like I can enter a corner just fine. When I get in the corner the steering feels mushy and unsure. I do feel how the tires are not confidence inspiring, but I think that is an entirely different issue (new tires obviously). When I exit the corner everything goes back to feeling good. The bike feels stable when going over bumps while the bike is straight up, just not when it is leaned over in a corner.

The front and rear feel like they are soaking up bumps at different rates. The rear is set at 3 clicks from the top. It feels good. The front feels mushy.

Hopefully someone will put a memorial up for me, Rexbo.
