Default Fat Baby Sitter Triggers ESA


So, I'm taking my 240lb babysitter home and held the ESA button in to switch to 2 up and the service light comes on and bike seems like it's sitting low. What to do?
Thanks,
J

Get a thinner babysitter.

I'd say that's not good. My manual for my '09 specifically states that when setting ESA preload (1 or 2 riders/luggage) that you should not be sitting on the bike, and you should definatly not have the passenger sitting on it. Guess we know why now.

Make the babysitter walk; it'll save your suspension and work-off some of that fat.
