Apologies i forgot about this thread!
Thanks for the info had my first proper test ride over the weekend and it was terrible. Forks transmit EVERYTHING through the bars, 20mins riding mainly rough tracks and rocky patches 2nd-3rd gear mostly my hands and arms were done. Was a bit of a handful over brick size rocks just skipping and jumping about. Tried moving bars, levers adjusting clickers no good.
Swapped bikes with my mate, WR400 his felt so composed and comfy, would glide over bits i was being thrown around on, could ride all day on it but had to stop as my mates hands hurt after 5 mins on the gasgas
Pulled the forks apart tonight to set about trying to make them work.
Any advice? Im 105kg looking for an enduro setup no MX, clubman sort of standard with a trials background.
7.5wt Silkolene, new seals and bushes. 110mm air gap
Paint is off rear spring and i havent got the fronts out yet to measure.
front sag is 80mm, rear 105mm so im guessing springs are about right unless damping is masking something.
this is the valving i found on the base.

Seems like a load of shims compared to anything i have found admittedly these all appear to be 0.1mm thick which i havent seen either.
Havent got the tools to get into the rebound valve yet but the clicker doesnt have much effect so i guess it needs some work too.
Thanks for any info
Neil
