[QUOTE="avlehtine, post: 24330, member: 20290"] If you want to get it anywhere near good, you _will_ need stiffer springs. If you want to do your best with what you have, first set sag (many threads on this forum, you will have to put more preload on the spring than is healthy). You also want to increase compression damping, I think you have the fork compression at the bottom of the forks (screws), so screw them in a whole bunch of clicks (about 5 to start with), and the compression on top of the rear shock reservoir. Screw in the large nut-like thing at least half a turn and the screw in the middle again a lot of clicks. The suspension is NOT meant for a 250 lbs. guy. To get it somewhere perfect you will need a revalve in addition to the stiffer springs. All in my opinion, of course. [/QUOTE]
