Message: [QUOTE="JimDirt, post: 1431457, member: 124374"] New here (my first post and looks like i am reviving a old Poll) , what i have noticed , is heavy springs and really soft valving makes Off-Road riding more pleasurable by keeping the bike up in the stroke yet letting the suspension work so you dont have to , i find since going 2 size stiffer fork springs (while keeping rear spring for my weight) and valving both front and rear very soft , my bike seems to float over most things and does not seem to deflect as much , making rider effort much less work , and making the ride more enjoyable , i used softer Pressure Springs as well (2002 CRF450R and 2006 CRF450X) on both my bikes , i also ride my R on the track , and find this setup works great with only a few clicks to set it for the track i am riding , i am also overweight and older , so the beatings were killing me , with this setup , i can ride longer with less fatigue and arm pump , i wish i had done this sooner [/QUOTE]
