[QUOTE="firecracker22, post: 116287, member: 20316"] Well, now that I have moved into the world of "real bikes," I begin to see the importance of proper suspension set up. Can someone help me figure out what I should do, and in what order? I ride a 01 EXC 200. I ride at a beginner level. I ride approximately 70% woods, 30% mx. I weigh about 145 with gear, I'm guessing--about how much to add for gear? I weigh 130 in street clothes, no shoes. We set the sag as much as we could--to get the static sag below 45mm, we had to set the rider sag at 90mm; now it's about 30mm. I only vaguely understand these things so I may have garbled or misremembered the info. I don't know where to start. I don't know what springs are in my bike now, or even what weight oil. What should I do first? Shock or forks? How do I go about setting the clickers? Should I use a different weight oil? I know I need lighter springs. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
