    Anybody else having problems with these forks? Bike dances around until you get on the gas a little.. Looks like I'll be having the suspension done sooner than I thought...

    Have you opened the low speed adjuster or decreased rebound, yet?

    Yup I went all the way in to the compression and three clicks on the rebound still dances around.. Gonna play around with the clickers a little more but I know I will do the suspension.. had my YZ done by Pro Pilot and it was night and day!!

    If you turned your compressions clickers, "all the way in", you stiffened it up. They should be turned out or counterclockwise, too soften.

    I only have about 10-12 hrs on my 09 wr300. If you're talking about the 2010 model, it has totally different forks so never mind.

    on the 09, the 50mm shivers work well for me for trailriding, but they are a little soft for giant sand whoops. I'm running stock settings on compression, +1 on rebound, and i added 20cc of oil to each leg to try to ramp up the progression on big hits. I tried a couple more clicks of compression damping but then they started to get unacceptably harsh on small square-edged rocks and things.

    I'll need to have them revalved if I want to seriously race that bike, but for rocky technical desert trails, ridden fairly aggressively, it's better than any other stock bike I've owned.
