238lb intermediate mx rider using a variety of different track styles.
Ok so I've switched to Husky from Suzuki and I feel like I've made a HUGE mistake. The bike is virtually unrideable compared to the Suzuki. Its skittish, I get crippled with arm pump and my hands are in pain within 2 laps at race pace, it's unstable to ride, the front tucks in corners. It's like I'm a complete and utter novice again. I was practicing in Expert class on my Suzuki now I'm riding in the novices.
It's WP suspension with the AER48 air forks.
I spoke to a shock specialist who sold me a stiffer spring 52 or 54nm I think which was for my weight.
I have the shock wound fully up and I can only achieve 85mm race sag so I'm guessing he's sold me a too heavy spring. I am having traction problems too. I've managed to combat it slightly using clickers but it still not good enough.
I have been playing around with the air forks and I've got them working better but still so far off where I need them to be.
The bike hasn't been revalved but I've always got my suspension perfect without ever revalving a bike. I'm wondering if now is the time to throw some money at it though before I sell up and revert back to Suzuki because as it stands the Husky is the worst bike I've ever ridden!
Any help appreciated.
