  • four bolts and the A-frame is off so much easyer i have this bike

  • @ben1996ful

    you may be getting your dimension from a different spot as the OP or your sub frame may be tweeked.

    if the sag number dont match or are not within spec,a higher rate spring may be needed

  • @ben1996ful

    i will give you my opinion on that,i have nearly zero exp with dirt bikes but have worked on my sport bikes.

    no putting more preload on the spring will not make that longer IF the bike is on the center stand BC the shock is already stretched to the max as the rear wheel SHOULD not be touching the floor.

  • @syderpaintballer its the reservoir that holds the suspension fluid. it holds a lot of pressure when the bike's suspension is compressed therefore making it look like a nos bottle or some compressed container of that type

  • so the adjustment on the rear shock is the only way to adjust ride height, am i correct?

  • my first measurment when the bike is on the stand is 586mm and when i sit on it it is 486. but can i turn the spring so that the first measurment is 620mm like on vid

    and set sag again so the bike is a bit taller

    please reply

  • I need to do this, on my yz250f I always feel like I'm ridin a wheelie cause my back end is so low and my front is pretty high lol I dunno maybe I'm too big for it at 6' 3" and 210lbs :L

  • do you work on racing atv

  • @COLTON17SMITH yeah i changed out the springs and shock and gained about 10 lbs. lol....its so much fun at the track and i pretty much jumped everything there once i got the clickers dialed in

  • @ghat13 you get the suspension on your bike dialed yet?
