[QUOTE="vznx1w, post: 436830, member: 20864"] I'm installing GVs in the fork of my '01 YZ426 (Sorry Jer, if I was sending my stuff out, I'd definately have you do the work. But, I like to do all my own work on the bike.) Back to my setup question: I'm removing the mid-valve and installing the cylinder valve block-off plate per RT's instructions. My recommended valve stack (195 lb B-rider, MX) is CL7 and CH6. However, several guys on the Thumpertalk discussion group are saying that this is way too much Hi-Speed damping and are reporting excellent results with a CH2 setting. I am reluctant to lighten the hi-speed by such a large amount, as what I'm really looking for is better bottoming control when I mistime the really big jumps (+70') and miss the landing ramp. I'm afraid that while the light hi-speed damping would feel plush over the chop, it will not give me the hard landing control I'm looking for. Even though I'm tempted to following the advice of my fellow 426 riders, it doesn't seem right that Race Tech's recommendation should be this far off. Input is appreciated. Steve [/QUOTE]
