i noticed i have been riding and my front shocks are just stuff as everything.... i took the springs basicly all thw way out and they are still very hard. i want them to sag a little more and be a little softer is there anything else i can do get to them to give a little?

Got nads?

How long you had them, because I know it took a little while to break mine in and now they feel good.

Yfz's are known for stiff suspension.

turn out the adjusters on the reservoir. it helps a little.

you could try and loosen both the compression and rebound, but not too much on the rebound or it will be a little bouncy. it just takes a little trial and error

The faster and harder you ride , the softer they'll feel :D At lower speeds they are very stiff.
