I am 95kg in full riding gear and have the right springs for this weight, however im finding it a challenge to get my sag sorted out. Any advice would be much appreciated! The Ktm owners manual recommends: Static Sag: as close to 33mm as possible. Riding Sag:102mm-110mm When set my static sag to 33mm, my riding sag sits at 97mm When I set my static sag to 30mm, my riding sag is 101mm -MY MAIN QUESTION: Will it affect the bikes handling much if i run with 30mm Static and 101 riding sag? Its the closest I can get to the specs. Any advice on the direction i should head while still using the current spring? (I will look into getting the next lighter spring soon, as it appears my current spring is to heavy) Whats more important? Static or riding sag? I race mx mainly and like to over jump where possible- so I give it a good workout. Cheers! motokiwi wrote: Hi Guys Can anyone give me some suspension advice?
