Title: Springs 1.1 or 1.2 ??? 220lbs no gear on
Post by: JS_racer on September 26, 2012, 12:36:43 PM

help guys, got screwed by race techs incorrect spring guide that has the bike a tic over 600lbs. Anyways, my guy did the gold valves and 1.0 springs, way too soft and can't get them dialed in.  they now recommend 1.2, but looking for feedback since their last recommendation on the chart was way off. (they are swapping them out)

i weigh 220 out of the shower, and i ride "the pace" semi aggressive on some 1.5 lane bumpy crappy roads in Wisconsin. 

any other tips here ?? the long soft top out spring was recommended to be replaced, but with something they done have till the next production run. sweet!!

thanks much for the time,
Joel
