Not sure, they don't give the 450 very sporty suspension. More like FIRM. Knowing Honda, the design is probably aimed at stability, rideability and reliability. When I get a big load on my racks, the S is sure stable and never tippy. Hope that helps.

I used to have a foreman and the shocks were pretty easy to bottom out jumping. I'd say any more then a foot or two of air will bottom them out. They don't bottom out harsh or anything but you'll know when you bottom out.

Why would I jump a foreman? Is the foreman good in mud ect? I need a winch and some 28 Vamps or outlaws.
