				Went for a ride today and hit a few 'bumps' so I thought I'd check the
 settings on the rear shocks and was 'shocked' to see that there are none. (WTF)
The front is suspension is a bit better than my old SH150i but the rear
is harsher.

				The stock shocks on my 2017 don't have any adjustments. I guess the mindset is to replace them when they wear out.  
 
 
I haven't looked into getting any replacements for mine yet. Those frost heaves, pot holes, and residual sand patches left over from Winter road treatment can be a real "hoot" though.  
 
 
Somebody will chime in here that has some experience with YSS or some brand I'm sure. . ..

				True. I think the YSS shocks have been considered the most popular so far on this forum. There are varying sub-categories within the brand for differing rider weights. You would have to get with those who have them to see which one is best for your bike.

				Turning the handlebars will steer the scooter around the bumps.
Sorted.

I kinda knew about the handlebar thing.
Hard to miss in traffic. Our weather goes from -35C to +35C.

I dont think Ive ever turned the handlebars on a bike other than pushing it. Again I am doing things so wrong.

				If you've only ever ridden in straight lines you may not have.

				Think I understand. 
Whenever he gets to a shore, he dismounts and turns it around.
