i bought a old bike(03rm250two) from jason rowe,the pro fmx rider.he broke his leg on it, and must be suspesious or somthing, so i picked it up.it has 3-pr suspension rebuild.im 200 lbs, and this thing feels over sprung but i dont realy know anything about dirtbike suspension.i tried to soften up the compression to my liking,but didnt mess with it much. and it just feels too stiff on the spring.i think the .046 is the heaviest fork spring and its at least that and the shock spring is red.the bike was also wreecked hard,so could the forks be bent or somthing? they dont leak at all.when i crank down on the wratcheting tie straps when i load it up, the shocks compress about 1 1/2-2 inches.
where do i start fixing this?i ride very slow and im learning,so i want the suspension to be very soft for my 200 lbs.
