KYB SSS Valving Input Please
I put a full 2008 YZ450 Front end on my 2000 GasGas XC300. I am 51yrs old, (riding 42 yrs). 6' 4", 250lbs in street clothes.*I enjoy all kinds of riding but prefer difficult single track, trails and hills.*(probably*B-C Enduro). *
* I changed springs to Racetech 48 with 5mm of preload.* I have tried to soften the forks about 7 times so far and below is what I have now for a tune. The forks are still too stiff on trail trash even with the compression adjusters complete loose. They work great for big hits but they are too stiff most for most all else. * Midvalve * Nut Washer 11mm*(x1) 0.25mm 12mm (x1) 0.11mm 14mm (x1) 0.11mm 16mm (x1) 0.11mm 18mm (x1) 0.11mm 13mm (x1) 0.11mm 20mm x0.045 (x3)* 0.11mm (Stock had 4) Piston 20mm x 0.045" (x2)*0.11mm (Stock had 4) 17mm x 0.045" (x2) 0.11mm (Stock had 3) 11mm x 0.01" (x2) 0.25mm 17mm x 0.01" (x3) 0.3mm 17mm x 0.045" (x1) 0.11mm (moved from above) Collar * Estimated Midvalve Float* 0.5mm (as I removed*two*0.11mm shims) * Base Valve * Nut Cup Washer 4 holes Spring big silver washer with collar Piston 32mm (x9) 0.11mm 20mm (x1) 0.11mm (from*midvalve stack) 32mm (x6) 0.11mm* (stock was 18x 32mm) 30mm (x1) 0.11mm 28mm (x1) 0.11mm 26mm (x1) 0.11mm 24mm (x1) 0.11mm 22mm (x1) 0.11mm 20mm (x1) 0.11mm 18mm (x1) 0.11mm 16mm (x1) 0.11mm 20mm (x2) 1.58mm 11mm (x2) 0.25mm * 310cc 5w BelRay oil * * It seems that the compression screws do not have a big impact on the dampening.* Any input would be appreciated. |
