Fork Springs for 190-200lb rider, and redoing shim stack
Posted: 03:28 pm Sep 24 2009
Hey all I ran across a site that had good recommendations for the suggested fork spring rates for 180-200lb rider. (didn't need shock springs for my weight)
AS well as other bikes I could find them from.
Does anyone know of this site or the information I seek? ( I think it was .38 rate? or maybe XR400 stock springs?)
Where do ya'll buy fork springs if I were to just order the proper rate?
As well I have revalved my own suspension in my XR650R based on various shim stack recommendations for different riding styles, has anyone made this sort of information available for the KDX forks more fine tuned than just removing 2 from the compression stack? (easy mod, but if I had it off I'd be willing to try something more fine tuned)
I wont be racing...just want it sprung to my weight so if I can't do it cheap I won't do it right now. (springs and 2 shim mod is in my cost and I'll buy some other shims if there is a good recommendations of stack combo's)
Thanks
I'm really enjoying this site!
