    Suspension

    by hart150F » Sun Apr 15, 2007 10:30 am

    Is there any way to adjust the suspension on a 2006 CRF150F without buying a new spring? I weigh about 145lbs and I'm approx. 5'8"
    If it is possible, it is done. If it is impossible, it will be done.

    I don't think we NEED to. I jump it alot and it tends to bottom out on fairly small jumps. I realize this isnt a racing bike, but I don't want to hurt it by jumping too much.

    I think he emans the bike is too heavy for them. I agree. If it bottoms out that easily, I'm pretty scared, I caught a lil air today and it felt like a lot of fun. Definitely be doing that again!

    Simply put in the springs suitable for the new weight. Most likely .41 to .44 kg/mm.

    Gives you a really superior front end to the stock pogo sticks.
