[QUOTE="steve125, post: 918383, member: 20272"] I look forward to reading your Enzo ride report, do you just ride offroad or MX?? That said i've updated my 250 suspension from my previous comments. My at home up-grades really worked well over stock, but in the end I still had issues. First I had Pete of HDR/MX-Tech do the front forks. We went back to the std springs, pre-loaded the ICS spring and main springs, revalved the mid and replaced the base valves. Set the oil at 255cc and clickers at 12c 10r. Now the forks feel like a good set of Showas, ride higher, plusher, and have superb bottoming resistance. The forks were installed to 7mm up in the clamps for a great combo of turning and stability. 12mm up if you want RM like turning :nod: Now since the forks feel better than the shock, it was time to update that. Pete pulled the shock apart and installed a MX-Tech valve along with the proper shims from my weight and riding ability. We went 1 up on the shock spring from std. Set sag at 104mm C15 HSC 1 1/2 R12. The shock was a real suprise, so cushy but no bottoming that I could feel. It hooked up well, tracked perfect, rebound was light but not springy and very controlled. All the small-mid bumps were gone. Thats a huge improvement over stock! I have not touched a clicker in 2 rides. We should all be so lucky HUH?? An A+ job from Pete and MX-Tech!!! [/QUOTE]
