GasGas EC 300 2011 need new shock spring
Hi All
I am very happy i found this forum, been reading most of the suspension posts but still have some questions. I have a new GasGas EC 300 Racing 2011, i am from Israel so the racing model here comes with the Marzocchi 48 mm front and Ohlins 888 rear. my weight is 200 pound witout gear (so i assume 10-20 pounds more with gear) rear shock stock spring is 5.2, and here is the problem: with shock spring preload at 10mm from full open i get a static sag of 35mm and rider sag 135mm, so i had to close shock preload to 25mm from full open and now i get the desired 105mm rider sag but the static sag is only 20mm. all this tells me my rear shock spring rate is too soft, any idea what spring rate i need and where can i get it in the USA or Europe? Thanks for the help. (can add pictures if its any help) |
