Does anybody have any suggestions for setting the stock shocks up for MX? I weigh about 140 and race in the intermediate class. So far, they feel too soft. I keep bottoming out on any good size jump.

you'll really have to adjust it the way you want it. just go out to the track someday when you have time and hit the jumps one after another and try different settings each time you go out there. but if your bottoming out then youll want to turn the compression up a bit

Keep clicking up the settings till you bottom out every once in a while. If you set it so you never bottom out, you are not using your full travel.

You should also set your ride height/sag/free sag before you do anything.
