I have a great bike a few grermlins but a great bike. It handles great until I hit stutter bumps or braking bumps. The stock suspension is way off and I can only get it to handle right by having 0.38s in the front and I think 4.6 at the rear. Is it me or does this bike squat too low at the rear.

They do squat-a fix is to get the shorter dog links-another cheaper option is to put a shim in the shock to increase travel-this does then mean a shock service.
The small bump complience is a problem-removing the bladder in the forks helps IMO.

To Marcus (if I may) you seem to most helpful than most Brits for that I thank you and hope we meet at a descent British GP in 2003.

Lee thanks, To meet up would be great-i plan on going to the next gp(its at some old raf base i belive.
Forgot to say on the last post, a work around on the KX rear end is to run less sag than normal-maybe 93mm -most bikes run between 95 and 100mm.
