I'm 90% sure I remember reading in my FZ6 owner's manual that they have a recommended rear shock setting based on rider weight and 175 lbs was more like a 3 or 4. If you have it set on "1" at 175 lbs and hit a large bump the rear shock may actually bottom out which would cause a huge jolt to the bike which could upset it enough to cause a crash. Keep that in mind too. Softer isn't always better.
Well you're a 100% wrong . The manual doesn't mention any weight or recommend any settings.
