[QUOTE="Jesper, post: 433819, member: 22023"] I'm setting up my new KTM 200 EXC -03 and used my PDS 2 from my old bike and also added .42 springs in the forks. The result was a very firm bike that felt like a MX bike to ride, worked very well on the MX track but not very compliant in rocks and roots. I will now try to decrease the spring rates, .38+.42 in front and use a PDS 1 that I have. Will the PDS 1 be a good match for the -03 shock for riding enduro or shall I spend the money for a PDS 6 or 7? For my -01 200 the PDS 1 was to soft for my 175lbs without gear, do the -03 KTMs need softer springs? As I understand it the shorter PDS springs becomes stiffer earlier in the stroke, is the new shocks valving matched to the longer springs progression curve or is the choice of PDS 0-4 or 5-8 just a matter of application. Will a longer spring be better in the woods and the shorter on the MX track? Looking forward to hear from the collective wisdom. [/QUOTE]
