your name must be greek, are you greek mate :?: since your not doing any mods you can play a bit with the compression damping and rebound. make a bit stiffer the compression damping for the start. i dont know about the crf though how its working ;)

hi, thanks man for your reply, in the next 3-4 days i think my bike will be ready, and give you guys a taste of how it feels.

Heavier weight springs are probably a good thing to look at, and not particularly expensive...

Nah, surely with a name like that he must be Chinese! ;)

Welcome Nikos.

mate if your running standard suspension change the oil to 10 weight in both the forks and shock it helps a lot , next would be springs , rear rider sag between 70 and 80 , i run it at around 65 but you need a heavier spring for that . if you dont change the oil wind every thing on an hang on tight they handle like shit , but that also depends on what lap times you are doing

thanks guys, for the moment as i set i'll not do any changes in my suspension, only settings, i'll race in the 11 of march and afteri'll see what is left to be fixed.

thanks a lot for your help, looking forward for some more replies.


thanks
