Jeremy,
I was using Mx techs spring calculator. (thank you for that, I think they are great help) But I recieved what I thought was interestingly curious results, which I'm hoping you or someone else can shed some light on.
I'm setting up my brand new 2001 wr250f. I went through the program (my wieght= 210 lbs.) and when I hit desert enduro, it said to keep the shock stock, and stiffen the forks to .47's.
When I simply changed from enduro to MX, it recomended a stiffer shock (expected) but softer fork springs .45's than the enduro recomendations.
With my limited knowledge I would think MX would want stiffer spring than enduro's, correct?

ST,
Thanks man.. Thats called Error! We are working on a major clean up / tune up / redo/ of our sit right now.. When our web company made our site they made it very difcult to edit data.. Now we are going to have a more frendly database, so we can find errors like that quickly, short of you posting, it we don't know!
Regards,
Jer

Happy to return the favor. You've helped me so much overthe last year or so setting up my other bikes. I really appreciate it.

Hey Scar, Call steve @ So.Cal Suspension System, he is an MX Tech asscociate., He just set mine up for the Dez, I'm 210# and he went with 46's and a straight rate in the rear, and I tell ya if he's work is any where near his service it's going to be awsome.
He can pretty much give you a recipe over the phone

Jer,
on a related topic, a friend and I were on you web site and check the spring rates for his CRF450. The rate generator came back with a different shock spring for MX and Desert/Enduro use. Was that intentional? I thought you need to keep the unladen sag withing a specific range when the race sag is set. Are you doing something different these days?
