what springs rates u running and sag numbers?

[polle]

stock spring (front 0.44kg/mm and rear 5.1kg/mm) and race sag 100mm with pc-linkage arm.

[mog]

what weight are you and clicker settings ?

[motoXr_22]

does the pc linkage arm lower the back of the bike?

[polle]

what weight are you and clicker settings ?

i weight 70 kg with out gear and clicker front c-11,r-9 and rear c-11,r11,hs2,5

[adamdf]

stock spring (front 0.44kg/mm and rear 5.1kg/mm) and race sag 100mm with pc-linkage arm.

As far as i know the stock spring is a 5.4kg?? Racetech lists it as 5.1kg but i thought they were wrong on that , can someone confirm this?

maybe I'll try to remove midvalve comp 9.5x.20 and grind sleeve 1.9mm and add basevalve 2x29x.10 and change clamp 17 or 18.

someone posted the 2011 team green specs, there its listed as 51N/mm, that would be 5.2kg/mm

https://www.thumpertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=956098&highlight=2011+kawasaki+team+green+suspension+specs

tech care lists the 2011 spring as 5.2, but the 2010 as 5.4

[mog]

most of the kxf 250 come with a light spring a 5.1 or 5.2

whats your free sag? polle advice will give a decent increase in stiffness

[polle]

sag number is free 44mm race sag 100mm with stock spring and pc-linkage arm.

i just read the article in MXA, they tested the DEAN WILSON'S PRO CIRCUIT / KAWASAKI KX250F, Dean weighs 155 pounds and uses 4.8kg/mm ​​rear spring he has the same weight as me.

Maybe i need same rear spring (4.8kg/mm)

[mog]

that's a lot of free sag

[polle]

now i are test my bike 4.8kg/mm rear spring and bike it`s balance.

front and rear bottom out same time,now i change valving.

free sag 35mm and race sag 100mm.

[motoXr_22]

so are you saying after you re valved you now have a diffrent static sag no

[polle]

what do you think that if I take out the comp stack midvalve 17x.10 and drill bleed hole piston?

needs to be changed rebound stack?

[mog]

i would not think so, as you are changing on type of bleed for another, the stack should already be adjusted for extra bleed.

[polle]

ok. I thought I'd try without 17x.10 bleed shim and drill bleed hole.

Stock REB stack looks like this:

5 - 18.1

9.10

18.1

16.1

14.1

12.1

10.1

9.2 b

3 - 11.3

12.5 x 2.5 w

[mog]

it looks plenty stiff
