[QUOTE="dirt bike dave, post: 1424626, member: 18302"] Yes, you will need to do some testing to find a setting you will be happy with. The pressure is pretty easy to experiment with. Back in the day, we brought a tank with compressed air with us. Now you can get an electric tire pump where you pre-set the pressure, and it will fill to that amount. That would make it easy to experiment. The air forks are an interesting piece of Yamaha motocross history, so they might be worth keeping. Suspension was improving very rapidly during the late 1970's. The '77 frames, front and rear suspension are totally different than the '76, and supposed to be much better. I know the rear shock will not interchange, and the '77 and '78 had leading axle forks. So that would change the geometry (maybe for the better) if you did a fork swap. Not sure about fork tube diameter on the later bikes. It might be larger. [/QUOTE]
