2001 kx250 suspension settings

[turboandy]

I have a 2001 KX250, I am 190 lbs intermediate/expert. I am curious as to what your recomended suspension set up would be. I am currently running the following and I am getting some rear end kicking going into turns when hard on the brakes and when on the throttle on bumpy straights. I also have a bit of head shake. But the bike turns too well for me to change the fork height. forks: 12mm out of top tree, .043 stock spring, 90 mm 5 wt oil, 12 reb, 6 comp. Shock : 5.4 spring, sag 100mm, reb 11, comp L 10, comp H 2. Thank you in advance.

Alot of modern mx bikes have a nasty kick under breaking, i have found only revalving fixes it.

looks like your spring set up is not balanced .43 go with 5.0 and .47 go with 5.4 . unless pc did your stuff, they have been into that style lately.
what is your free sag ??(no rider)
shaggy

Thanks guys, found the comp h had moved to 1.25 turns, returned it to 2 turns and all is well.
