Are they revalved?

If not they will probably be way too stiff.

I just had cone valves set up for my TC125 @ 165lbs, had to go with a smaller spring (3.8 I think) and different valve setting and lower oil level.
Send them to a suspension company and get them set up for you.

If I remember correctly the standard setting for EU 16-18 cone valves was..
Comp: 12
RB: 15
Preload: 0
3rd line

I used this setting for hardpack:
Comp: 15
RB: 12
Preload: 0
2nd line

The rebound setting depends on the cone float. Typically 14-18 depending on the float if you have the standard rebound valving that the CV's come with.
The compression you'll have to play with. My 2 sets that I have are 16-18 out.

Are these brand new or did you buy them used?
