First off, I had an '05 450EXC that I rode for a few years but never really got on with, problem was...

    Spring rates for 195lb rider with gear, FE570

    I'm trying to dial in my spring rates for my '09 FE570. I'm 195lbs with all my gear. With a progressive PDS6 (7.1-9.0kg/mm) I get 145mm race sag. And that is with 10mm of preload on the shock. I'm afraid all that preload will take away from the suppleness of the suspension, the local well known...
