hey, i have a predator and am 6'5" and 220lbs. i do a little jumping and i have set the rear shock fairly hard. this raises my ride height too high though. anyone thought or taken off the top spring and just used the large spring to lower it and have stiffer suspension? anyone have any opinions? i think i am going to try it depending on the input i get. thanks

There is a couple things you can do here. 1) you can order a shock spring covervsion from HPD or 2) get a rear spring from a KTM 125 sx. the spring you want is the PDS-6 or PDS-7. The seven is a heavier spring than the six.

I have run the HPD and PDS-6 both and I prefer the PDS-6. The PDS-6 spring is a longer progressive rate spring than the HPD, gives me a smooter ride but can handle the bigger jumps too without killing you.

If you are interested I have the HPD rear spring (for 180-220) that I will sale you if interested.
