Adjusting suspension for pillion - XL600L

Hi,

I find my fron end a bit bouncy with a pillion on my XL600LMF.

I obviously want to adjust the suspension accordingly. What is the best strategy?

I am gonna start with decreasing the preload - how much of an adjustment should I safely go for. Should I also drop the front a little?

Thanks for any pointers as I have never done this before.

Cheers,

Paul
