I finally got my forks close to working how I believe they should.
Shims were
6x 32x0.1
22
6x 32 ->16x0.1
14x0.3
14x0.3
Flipped bleed stack
After reading how you got on with the 12mm clamp I looked at my stack and had a 14x0.1 and 11x0.3 in my bleed stack so I swapped a few things around and ended up with.
6x32x0.1
22
6x 32 -> 16x0.1
14x0.1
11x0.3
14x0.3
Flipped Bleed stack
So effectively now have an 11mm clamp, coupled with 0.48 springs and raising forks through the clamps 10mm (lowered front) it finally feels better than the sticky marzocchi 45s they replaced.
My thoughts, i think my 06/07 YZ250f forks are a bit longer than the marzocchis. This was putting my weight back and slackening head angle, making the forks less active/harsh and leaving the front vague.
Would like a little more small bump/trail trash compliance. Was out at a place recently, quite rocky all 2nd, 3rd gear tight tracks (no jumps), didn't use the last 3" of travel.
Reb/Mid stock but
0.3 float in 1 leg and 0.4 in the other.
Tempted to try 0.4 float in both legs and depending on how that goes maybe play with the ICS spring.
