setting suspension

[bikerchick22]

im interested in learning my suspension. i have a honda 250r, and im having trouble getting the bike set up to feel comfortable riding it. i know the difference in setting the rebound and compression, but im not sure what to look for when im riding to know which setting to adjust, so if anyone could explain the different things to look for while riding i would appriciate any help. i really love to ride, ive even raced mx a couple of times. i just feel like i could be better once my suspension gets the proper setting.thanks

suspension setup for kids bikes

I know the basic sag settings for a full sized bike. But then I was talking with a friend. His daughter is 9 years old and racing. I asked what he had the sag set at and he had no idea there was even a setting to be made.

So is it still 2 to 2 1/2" in the rear for smaller bikes/ riders.
She's on a 65cc Kawasaki if it makes any difference.

oops, meant to start my own thread. I guess it will work in this one though.

sorry about that! It's been a long day.
