Hey All,
After my first weekend on the track I noticed that my forks were riding pretty low in the stroke even while on the flat. Even standing the bike up straight the forks drop down about 2 inches. Stock springs are supposed to be .35, what would you recommend me to replace them with? I weigh 170#, ride mostly light MX (no BIG stuff, just easy doubles!) and ride trails.
Who is a good source for springs and what am I likely to pay for them. I'm assuming that springs for the US version of the KDX250 will fit my SR model. Anyone have experience with that?
How about oil level with stock valving? Can I use ATF in the forks? What should I look for in fork "sag" in inches? I have the rear set up nicely to 100mm and it works great, but the front is way too soft.
Thanks.
