manual said 140mm down from the top of the fork tube is this ok or is there a somthing better????????

any info would be great

I normally set that type fork at about 125mm down, but if it was working OK for you then try the 140mm. You'll have more bottoming resistance at 125mm and notice it's progressively firmer in the last 1/3 of the travel.

was just looking at the kyb fork spec's in the big husky manual and thay say 100mm ....what whould this be like ......note this bike is not used on a mx track's....which would be a better range 140mm or 100mm???

I don't think you'll to run that high on the 250. I think if you are just riding woods type stuff, then the 140 to 125 range will be fine. With the 100 I think you'll be disappointed in the overall action of the forks over the roots and rocks. But, everybody's different and you may really like it. The big bikes weigh about 50# more than the X-light 250's, and most of that is toward the front.

I've found most guys like about 125mm in the woods, unless they're running soft springs and are too tight to replace them. Then they'll try to compermise by running the oil level higher, but you'll trading off some plushness.

yep i think i will go with 125mm and see i only ride woods and single track and yes i like it to be plush

Hello! how you like it with 125?
i have soft springs 4.0 and thinking how many oil to put. also how many in litres it will be more then one?
