I installed H&R springs (1.5in drop) and the instructions said to cut the front bumpstops down by 1/2 an inch. I didn't do this, so far it hasn't affected my ride and I haven't bottomed out yet, so is this all cool? Or is my ride super bouncy because I'm riding ON the bumstops and just don't know it.

NOTE: I have stock struts.

'tis it

you're ride is super bouncy because of stock struts (mine is too....). cutting bumpstops just gives more shock travel (i cut mine in half)

"Illegal? Yes. Dangerous? No doubt. But for those few, fleeting seconds as we party with Power and Speed, the insanity seems to makes absolute sense."

Yeah I knew it would be bouncy because of the stock struts but I thought I might be riding the bumpstops. I mainly left them uncut because I didn't want the struts to compress too far all the time and blow on me soo.... Whatever.
