And to add, Rob if you need any help with anything at the track please let me know.

If this happens I will be there.

f-in hilarious!

This is a cool old dirt bike. Can't wait to get it running and riding it in the back yard. Thanks again Judy! -joe

Judy, on a street bike they may provide a 'better' ride, more comfortable. I *think* the reason folks started using them was to mask issues with damping circuits that were woefully inadequate. But that is just a guess. They could mask a horrible compression circuit by becoming stiffer as the...

What Judy said. Traxxion, Ohlins, Racetech. All of them have a person on the other end of the phone that can answer your questions. Joe

This answer requires you understand the difference between a progressive and a straight rate spring. As well a basic understanding of what sag is and why we want it on our race bikes. We set sag to determine the proper ride height of the motorcycle. We do this by adjusting the spring preload...
