    I've noticed the cr 250 has a lighter spring than the wr for some weird reason. Got 25mm static and 100mm standing on pegs with street clothes.with 5.2 . Has 4.5 forks springs. Thinking about trying 5.4 or 5.6 . I weigh 210. Anybody have any for sale? Old rider on nasty single track rocks.

    I'm 210 lbs and have 4.8 and 5.6 and wish I would have gone one step more (for sure on the shock).

    I'm not doing any jumps, just trails. Don't know if that's to much. What is you sag working out to Doug? Thanks.

    sag was right on front and back, but there is a pretty big window for the sag numbers so a lot of it comes down to what works for your riding style. My bike works great in the really technical stuff that is more like trials then moto. The fast GNCC type stuff is where I get smoked by my riding buddies. I use all of my travel and bottom often and still can't keep the pace... maybe it's because I'm old and slow but when I jump on my son's YZ450 it think "now I see why I can't keep up" lol. Problem is if I rode his bike I'd be worn out in 20 min.

    I know the feeling Doug. I found I can go softer on springs because I'm one of the older I get the faster I was group!
