Do I need to change my springs??

[hallam76]

I have been trying to figure out why my suspension is feeling harsh, I have come to the conclusion that the bike is riding too low in the stroke, I have a 2010 250EC and weight 200lbs without riding gear , any suggestions as to what weight springs I should run??

[lankydoug]

I weigh 205 without gear and LTR recommended a 5.6 rear and 4.6 on the forks and it worked out perfectly. My bike is a 2003 EC200

5.6/4.6 is where i'm at i'm 190 without gear. 205+ with (boots are heavy!). it's perfect for me

Check the function of your rear shock too. On my 2010 ec300, the sachs shock faded after only 15h of use, and it was replaced by my dealer.

I am trying to source some springs here in the UK but our main dealer is not very helpful! can anybody confirm if the fork springs the same as anything else? I have worked out that the back spring is the same as most kx and yz springs so that should be easy to source. Any help would be welcome

Try Chris Hockey 'Dr shox', he should be able to sell you some springs, or just call the Main Uk gasgas importer, they are very good.

Contact Dave @ www.stmsuspension.com. He has helped us out several times with suspension help. He is pretty familiar with the Gassers too.

How did you go then? Are you running the 5.6 and 4.6?
