Rear shock preload - Glenn has it figured out

[rgranger]

+100 on GMP and spring numbers. I dropped the KTM two sizes and it is simply fantastic now and still doesn't bottom. I went down one size from speck for my weight and what Les had setup, again another big woods improvement. After looking around, I think most of the numbers are based on MX and jumps. Both my bikes really kicked the back end around in the woods and over roots, softening it up allowed the suspension to do what it is designed to do, absorb shocks! Maybe I am more forward when riding, standing or seated, but it took me from a plodder to keeping up with a B rider...overnight, yeah really!

Play around with that stuff. It moves and is adjustable for a reason
