The past weekend we spent going from Stellenbosch to Tankwa Karoo Nat park and back.  

The bike is awesome when driving at not more than 100km/h on these (quite good) gravel roads.   But i am not one of those people who likes to smell the flowers.  I think i bottomed out the rear about 5 times and even the front once.  You know, that, "KLANGGGGGG" sound.  

Is this normal?  Dude i dont even weigh that much.  Had a little bit of luggage.  Am i riding it too hard?  Should i upgrade the coils?   Buy something else?

Does this happen as often with all KLR's?   :-\

Are there some thread i missed?
