Message: [QUOTE="chillrich, post: 807498, member: 46453"] Looking for some input, here is the situation. '98 YZ250 with stock suspension 190 lbs 5'10" Motocross track riding at Novice level Last week I added about 10 ml of oil to the forks which were at 135mm(manual spec with compression set at 5 clicks out). At this time my sag in rear was about 105mm and I was experiencing some harsh bottoming in the front. After adding the oil the bottoming was a little better and I noticed that arm pump had increased about 5 %. This week I set the sag to 95mm (with 17mm of free sag) and arm pump has increased dramatically. The handling of the bike seems pretty good, corners are OK and it doesn't seem squirmish on straights, maybe I'm not being critical enough? I was going to reduce the shock compression settings from standard by 2 clicks and increase the fork rebound by 1-2 clicks. Am I heading in the right direction with this? Thanks in advance for the input. Craig [/QUOTE]
