Probably because your 210lbs, and smooth rider or no, a very fast rider is still pushing suspension beyond its stock form, let alone a stock heavy rider.
All these comparisons to ktm suspension, yea its good, but they have unlimited time and money to spend on getting it right, seeing as they are the same company ktm and wp, I dont know of any other bike brand which uses wp either?
Wheras gasgas deals with suspension they have to spec and buy in. Although they dont do themselves any favours swapping brands every few years, even worse that there are 3 seperate suspension manufacturers contributing this year, sachs, marzocchi and ohlins., all of which work with other bike brands also. Its difficult to compete with ktm and wp in that aspect. Im not really sure what I mean by this, but thought I should point it out
haha rant over
