Fork valving question for JW
Hi JW,
I installed the Race Tech gold valves in the forks of a KXF250, including converting the mid valve to a check plate.
Happy with everything except it's a little harsh on square edge bumps (braking and acceleration)
170lb rider, MX novice/intermediate.
Stock fork springs (.43) oil level at 95mm.
I have heard some discution that converting the mid valve is NOT the way to go, that it pushes too quickly into the progressive part of the stroke causing harshness on chop.
What is your opinion, and what would be the best fix??
Thanks
Dave
