We've had nothing but good luck with the 15 version on both .. 2.5 weight oil and the right valving . DECKER at ENZO set us up
On the 250 u add a second schrader valve with low pressure.
450 i made pretty decent with 2.5 and stock valving . But then it was too plush with stock valving .. So Enzo set me up with one of the best sets yet ..
I've tried more psi turning clickers badically all way in it'll be better in one aspect just as bad rest time.
I'm going try adding little more oil and see if helps but I'm not optimistic.
The Shop
Right now there somewhat harsh and bottom out way way too easy like about killing me, IM going to ride this weekend more after adding oil see what happens.
thanks
However back to your problem. My guess is the following on tuning. Harshness is being cause by one of these factors, midvalve is too tight and needs more float, the High PSI you are running for your weight is creating too much seal drag which can only be slightly fixed by installing SKF seals, LSV valving and compression valving needs to be stiffened to keep the bike higher in the stroke, Forks are not aligned properly when installed and they are binding at midstroke.
On bottoming, Higher oil lever needed, Much stiffer compression stack and LSV stack (this should not make the bike harsh just stiffer overall, harshness is coming from the above issues)
just my 2 cents, FWIW: KYB SSS forks on that bike works incredibly well. Minor mods needed to retrofit.
I'm running 36-38 psi.
I added 10cc oil each fork and will see what happens.
The guy that does my stuff has always done a good job with every bike I've had as good as anything else I've ever had but he also doesn't have lot experience with this stuff so I'm kind of a test dummy.
About to pickup a 2013 CRF450...
