Daraji Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 i weight abt 90 kgs, i realized when i sit on my shee it goes even lower, no for the time being i want to stiff it up, how can i do soo for all three shocks( front n rear) and whats soft and hard? i tried it on hard and soft didn't realize any difference. i believe i can fill it up with air? or gas? and once i do soo how to adjust my rear should i go on hard or soft? i hardly do any jumps on my shee because im scared that i wont get much clearance.. although i do have clearance! i want it to be much higher than what it is now from the rear at least.

possum Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 I changed out my rear coil for a stiffer one. It had strong enough valving to work with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daraji Posted April 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 IM using stock suspensions now if i turn the knob to harder it becomes stiffer? or it becomes softer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
So Cal Suspension Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 The knob on the top of the shock is for compression adjustment... It doesn't change anything other than the speed at which the shock will travel. You also have an additional adjuster on the bottom of the shock, that threads in and out to control rebound. The rebound adjuster, by design, will also create added compression resistance. Essentially it is a "bypass" controlled by a needle valve that flows both directions: Compression, and rebound. Don't add anymore nitrogen to the shock, as it won't do anything. Cranking down the preload will add some, but like Possum said, you should replace the spring, if you want to do it right. There isn't anything at all you can do with the front shocks, except adjust the preload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
