Hey, I got a question for everyone. I"m 6'3, 230lb and the 5.0kg spring is just not doing its job. The rear susp. is as stiff as possible and I still bottom the bike out when taking larger jumps. Would upgraing to a 7.1kg spring be a smart idea???

Just wondering what the "bigger" guys on the board use....

Thanks for the reply's :)

See Jeremy @ MX-Tech

I ride a '00 CR250 and I'm 6' @ 240lbs.
I replaced my fork and shock springs.
Why not give Jeremy Wilkey at MX-Tech (DRN Sponsor) a call 815-936-6277. He fixed me right up with the correct springs.
The correct spring will give you the right sag for the bike without cranking down on the shock spring adjuster.

Worth the time and effort to change them!

Good Luck!
