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"

I'm the same only 5'10, do we need to adjust it anyway?

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.

BBR fork and heavy duty rear shock

dont put cr85 fork and shock on your crf150 cause it is too heavy for them

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.
