If you were to ballpark setting up KDX forks for a 200 pound rider (not including the weight of gear), what would you go for?
Springs weight -- .41? Any use of progressive springs as in KTM?
Oil level?
Etc.
Thanks,
Rick

Re: Setting conventional forks for 200 pounds
I`m 185, and find it best to use a straight weigth spring. My bike is a 1992 kdx 200 so setting may not be the same. I have 43 springs from race tect, oil is 5" from top of fork tube. work great for me.AZRickD wrote:If you were to ballpark setting up KDX forks for a 200 pound rider (not including the weight of gear), what would you go for?
