[QUOTE="steve125, post: 893511, member: 20272"] My settings sound real close to dcwilson. Anyone riding MX and 190lbs plus needs the next step up stiffer springs. I've re-valved the rear shock and so far I'm happy with it. Still working on the forks, I feel they have good action, but bottom to easily. Im going to continue to add oil to the outer chamber until they are firm enough, and then start backing out the compression adjuster. Right now I'm 6 out on compression and its a bit to harsh. My rebound has been at 10 out for quite some time and works well. The number 1 thing you can do to make that 05 250YZ carve the turns is to raise the forks up in the clamps. 5 mm is a good start. Of course the rear shock needs to be balanced with the proper spring and sag settings. I run 100mm sag, with a 25mm free sag and a 5.1 rear spring. The forks are also 1 rate up from stock. [/QUOTE]
