[QUOTE="[-V-]icious, post: 24467, member: 19275"] I'm having Race Tech Gold Valves installed in my 2000 CR250 and I'm wondering what to expect. What I'm hoping for is less bottoming on large jumps. Large jumps seem to raise hell with my body, my position on the bike, etc. I think that maybe I'm too far over the bars on the landing because my arms seem to be soaking up most of the impact causing me to lose all my form and get wobbly on the larger nasty jumps. I'm hoping that the gold valves will give me a bit more confidence to jump some things I usually shy away from for fear of coming up a bit short on the landings - primarily doubles. I'm told that the gold valves should soak some of that up, if not, most or all of it, sending less of a jolt up my spine. Anyway, I'm having the front forks and rear shock done. I have no idea what the ride will feel like or where I need to set the clickers, so I'm gonna put them all to stock settings to start with. I'm told that my springs for my bike (2000 CR250) are optimal for a 180-185 lbs. person in street clothes. I'm 6'2" and at 189-193lbs in street clothes depending on the day, but I'm working out and I've come down from 250lbs. since June of last summer so I expect that I'll be down to 180 in a month or so. Anyone with insight and a reply would be greatly appreciated by me [img]http://dirtrider.net/ubb2/smile.gif[/img] Thanks in advance, Jas ps.
