Message: [QUOTE="SATxMotoX, post: 129655, member: 21706"] Thanks for the suggestions. Now some more questions: 1. ATF is the equivalent of 7.5wt, yes? What will I gain from going to a heavy (15wt) fluid? Is using heavier fluid a short term solution for undersprung forks? 2. How much is too much fluid in the forks? What I've been told is you add more fluid to help with bottoming. Right now I have 2 more oz in each fork leg than what the book calls for. Also, I only measured by amount I put in, not the "oil level" measurement from the top of the compressed fork. Is that a suitable way to determine how much fluid you have or do you really have to determine that by the oil level measurement? 3. Any suggestions on the rear shock? What would adding more air in the nitro canister (I'd have a suspension shop do it) help with? Should I go up to 200 psi (max is 213 psi)? Will that help beef up an undersprung rear? Here's my delima...I've got a 87 KX that is a blast to ride but I can't make up my mind if I want to set this bike up proper (i.e. spending some serious cash on reworking the suspension, motor, etc.) or putting that money toward a newer bike. The suspension is WAY soft on me, but since I can't decide what I want to do, I have yet to spend any money on making it right. So, right now I'm trying to find any and everyway possible to get my suspension set up expending the LEAST amount of cash possible. With that in mind, any and all suggestions are VERY appreciated. Thanks again for ya'lls help. Chris [/QUOTE]
