'06 rear end

For those of you with '06 450r's, how do you like the rear end? is it better than '04s and '05s? or does it still throw you forward like a pogo stick. Also, do you guys know if an after market 04/05 rear shock will work with an 06? Thanks.

When i ride the gas lines by my place my rear still bucks forward, but it is better than the 04/05... That is with the stock shock adjustment... If anyone could let me know what to adust and how much i would appreciate it.

What I mean is does it buck when you hit many bumps in a row, or does buck when going slow.

I found that in stock form they put the rebound on the rear a bit fast, if your light like I am you may need to slow it some. The rebound is on the bottom of the shock right near the link.
