01 rm250 help

[surfer5567]

what is the spring rate for my bike? im about 200lb in full riding gear and the front is sprung SUPER stiff. i ride alot in hollister and the ride on that thing is painful. ive dialed the suspension in as much as i could but i still cant get it as plush as id like. plus i get tank slappers like no ones business! im scared to haul down fire roads cause of how easily it will get tank slappers.

what can i do?

You can soften the clickers, but my 2000 RM250 had some harsh forks and that's just how it was made. Handled great though.

Exactly!! Handles amazing but it suuuucks on chop. So harsh! My buddies 06 kawi 250f is so plush compared. Id love to have something close to that. Also what can i do to fix the tank slappers? In a straight line any square edge bump sets it off bad

Any idea on what kind of valving?
