I've decided to install some XR400 .40kg/mm springs in my KDX220 forks. I weigh 195# w/ gear, am a recreational woods rider, and prefer a fairly plush ride since I ride a lot of rutted/rocky trails. No big jumps. After reading through a lot of great posts on this site, I'm thinking about going with the following settings:
- Preload of 5-10 mm
- 5w fork oil (thoughts on going with 7w?)
- 100mm oil level
- Aim for 1-1.5" of free sag, approx 2.5-3.00" when seated; Adjust spacer accordingly.
Am I on the right track?
Thanks, MBH
