    Question Suspension settings

    Right, its been too long I,ve tweaked my suspension settings here and there but I want to get it sussed properly for my height , weight and the sag etc.
    I know danger is the man in this department but he lives way out from me.
    Anyone local out south that can help with expertise?

    Courts people send me suspension from all over the country (last week I had forks from Invercargil here) so Bombay is not really that far away lol!
    Anyway I'm not available today but if you give me an obligation free call on Monday between 9-5 on 09 832 0153 I will explain why you need to eliminate the silly little Yamaha pop off valve washers and spring in the forks and fit a more conventional piston and shimstack arrangement to get these to work. I've done quite a few of these. Stock they are good for about 20 hours, nice and plush until the pop off spring looses preload then the fork just dives and leaves you no suspension to soak up the bumps.

    Actually if I get the time in the weekend I will photograph some of the parts that I have removed from some of these forks so you get a better idea what I'm talking about. Or you could just call me on Monday.
