OK, i wiegh about 235 lbs and my suspention is so soft that i bottom out w/ not much air. the problem is, i dont want to spend more than a few hundred and i am a bad, stupid mechaninc. maybe i should just go on a diet, but i think new springs would be more easy. so here goes, i heard of putting xr400 springs on the kdx fork (i have a '90 kdx 200). if this would be enough for my wieght, where could i get theese and how much cash? and about me being a bad mechanic, well, i am one, could i put the springs in in an hour or two? would i need a lot of special tools? ive done some searching on this but cant seem to find the answers im lookin' for. now, onto the shcok spring, this is the major problem thats setting me back, i sit on my bike and like half the travel is gone. so, could i just buy a stiffer spring, spend an hour of work and be done with it? as i said i dont want to spend a lot of money, and when youre 15 years old and fill propane tanks for a job, you start to measure prices in numbers of propane tanks rather than dollars.
so. whatever your reply is, thanks
