Hey, first time poster in the suspension forum!
First off, I'm probably 145 lbs in gear.
I have a 97 RM 125, I bought it used so I don't about any revalving or re-springing.. though everything appears stock. I never rode a bike with a suspension that really worked.. until this weekend.
My girlfreind bought an 03 CR85... man, I didn't get a chance to do big jumps or feel for bottoming resistance, but I was able to hammer through whoops like never before. I always thought it was sprung too soft for a person my size but I think I was wrong.
My point is... I've played with damping and preload on my bike but I think I know now the springs are too stiff. Will I have the same problem on any of the 03 125s? Are they all sprung too stiff for my weight? I'm just trying to guage if I'll have to spend more money to be happy with an already 5000 bike....
I don't have many friends with new bikes.. so I can't try them out for myself.
