Yup. Did that on both forks. Also, the big difference in the number of clicks on the various cap assemblies is true even with the caps off the forks. I just wish I had done something so simple and stupid and your suggestion would solve my problem. I'd rather be riding than be right. heh.

I was putting new springs and buffer kits (Traxxion Dynamics) in my 2003 FJR forks and found there was a difference between the two rebound adjusters. One had a total travel of 47 clicks, the other had 26. I also noticed that on the one with only 26 clicks, the black knob does not travel nearly...

Thanks, Lee. It's good to know I'm not completely wrong (in spite of what my ex says). I will call you next week. In the meantime, enjoy your trip. I'm jealous.

The 1000 lb spring is too much for your weight. We would go with a 750 - 800 lb spring for guys in your weight range depending on their riding needs. Are you sure you're measuring the sag correctly? With the spring you have, and your weight I don't see how it would return those sag numbers...

What spring did they put on yours and how much do you weigh? I'm 165 and the 1000 pound spring seems way too stiff. I have the compression set to 1 (the lowest) and it's still so harsh every little bump tosses me up off the saddle. Sag under my weight is set to a little over 35mm, but the sag...

Thanks for the reply. The 1000 lbs. came from Penske's paperwork. I know everybody's will vary somewhat. I was just trying to get an idea if average sized riders (160-175) were using a much softer spring or not. I'm going to call Traxxion Dynamics, the distributor, and check into this...

Anybody know the rate of the Wilbur's rear spring? I bought a Penske rear shock, which I like a lot, but the 1000 lb. spring seems too stiff. I'd like to get a softer spring but need a clue as to what rate works best. I need other clues as well, but this is neither the time nor place for that.
