[QUOTE="griffbones, post: 1389313, member: 72285"] My son has gained a lot of weight yet has not grown in height yet. So I'm looking at a 14 1/2 year old kid that weighs almost 160lbs but is still tippy toed on his KX85. We have enough engine for now as it is an Eric Gorr stroker motor, and he is not very aggressive. We are just easy going trail riders, but I want him to be properly sprung as not to get hurt. Stock fork and shock springs are: .29kg & 4.8kg We will be going to fork and shock springs: .33kg & 5.4kg This is a big jump in spring rates, so do I need to drastically change the compression on the forks and the compression and rebound on the shock? I understand that turning clickers clockwise makes the compression stiffer. But does turning clockwise make the rebound faster or slower (I'm thinking slower)? This has always confused me. Short of a re-valve, I don't know how to compensate for such a large change in spring rates. Please Help a dad out! [/QUOTE]
