I bought my 2002 CR125 used about a year ago. As soon as I started riding it, I noticed that the front forks seemed too stiff. I adjusted the clickers and did not feel much of a change. I then replaced the oil with lighter oil, and that helped slightly. Thinking that I still had a problem, I broke the forks down to see what I could find, and I noticed one thing that troubles me.
When I have the caps off the forks, and the springs out, the dampening rods seem to go down at different rates if I let them fall on their own, or if I push them. One seems to fall faster, and one is slower. It is very noticeable. I have adjusted the clickers on the bottom (I am not sure if this would matter or not) while performing this test, and it does not change the result. Does anyone have any ideas?
