Husaberg WP 2005 spring chart

This was sent to me from Husaberg. Other handwriting is mine.

Since it is oil density (2.5w, 5w, 7w...) we are concern with, any quality brand would do fine. I really don't like the idea of mixing brands of oil. But the mixing of fork oils would not do any internal damage.

Do I gather that a 210 lbs (95 kg) enduro rider would need the 48W spring shock with oil up to 110 mm?
Will 92 N/m be enough on the PDS?

For Enduro, it appears the Fork spring would be a 4.4N/mm and the rear Shock spring is 84N/mm. The Fork oil level or air gap is the 'quick fix' to fine adjustment on suspension. Whether soft or alittle harsh befoe bottoming.

1. Determine first whether you have the correct springs front and rear. Start with the shock spring and study the procedures for setting the Race Sag and if your out of the specification range then go to the next correct spring size.

Once you have correct spring size and still need more suspension adjustments...

2. Change shim stacks and revalve. How much damping you need depends on how hard you ride. When I first got my 550 (stock suspension) and launch it on a table top; I about broke my knees as I cleared the down ramp and landed flat. There are many shops to choose from MX Tech, Race Tech....
As I have discovered, not many have a strong knowledge with Husaberg suspension, Forks-yes, Rear shock-somewhat.

The 48N/mm shock spring is correct. The oil level will depend on how the forks bottom, is it harsh in the last 76mm to 100mm of travel, or does it bottom too fast and pops the front end into the air? This more of a individual adjustment. The higher oil level the more stiffer/harsh.

The WP chart above was for the Straight Rate 250mm spring length and not the Progressive 260mm spring.8O :roll:
