hey guys, quick question....
i have an 01' 400ex and my friend has an 03' 400ex and they are both set up about the same (just bolt on mods). they both have approximately the same hours on them and the suspensions are set up the same (i did it on purpose to check my problem). i weigh 140# and he weighs 165# and my quad rides rougher and gets a lot more vibration through the handlebars then his does.
i admit that my suspension probably isnt set up right (or his), but we have switched quads and his rides a lot smoother than mine (im mainly talking about the front shocks). we both have fairly low hours so im pretty sure my shocks arent shot yet. any ideas what could be the problem??
BTW: im an agressive trail rider, does anyone have any suspension setting suggestions for my weight and riding style (front preload and rear comp. and reb. adjustments). thanks.
