N1k 2014 rear suspension options....need more capacity for my fat butt.

Posted this on another forum in case someone here is not on the other and can help...

I have a question that I have not seen much on here. I have a 2014 N1K. I have about 2400 miles on it and am ready to start looking at the fine tuning to make it handle better. I left all the suspension settings stock from the factory/dealership.

Some background, I am at 235lbs and 6'2". The bike has always felt a little soft to me. Especially if I have the bags on the back with my daughter who is around 80 lbs. This afternoon I tightened the tension on the rear shock quite a bit. Tightened it all the way and backed off about 4 clicks or two full turns. It was almost maxed out but not quite. I really thought the rear felt much better like this. Seemed to handle a bit better and the cornering felt more true. One of the things that really attracted me to this bike was the rear adjustment ease with the dial and doing it without a special tool.

Now to my question. It feels like I need more tension on the spring or a stiffer spring all together. What are my options? Is there an aftermarket spring that can be installed to stiffen it up a bit? Do I need to do the entire assembly with shock and spring? Are there aftermarket options that let me adjust using the dial that is stock? Or is my best option to drop some lbs. and get to my target weight of 205lbs? (Not sure if this will even help if I am this far off with only 30 lbs difference, especially if I ride two up with my daughter)

There is not a lot of chatter or talk from folks on here or anywhere else that have this bike and have done suspension work/upgrades. Similarly, I think I might want to upgrade the front too as I am sure fixing the rear will just show that I am too heavy for the front too.

Any help would be appreciated....
