Thanks!
Yes. The FF02 has way too much suspension travel. You need stiffer springs and some spacers inside the shocks to reduce suspension travel.

If the shocks are stock.

A good idea is to increase the viscosity of your shock oil, perhaps go 60 or 80 (80 front 60 rear woudl be a good starting point with the 1 hole pistons).
