Suspension Travel ?

[m0agi]

Hi There

I wonder if anyone can help me out.

I have a 2005 rev 3 125 and want to set the suspension up a bit.

Can someone tell me the travel for the shock or how can i measure it in order to set up the sag.

Thanks for any help

Depending on how much you weigh this may or may not work for you, but it should get you close. Try setting the rear preload so that the rear suspension will settle about ten to fifteen millimeters under the bikes own weight from fully extended. Then adjust the front fork preload so it matches or feels similar to the rear setting with you aboard. The front probobly wont settle under the bikes weight and will have to be set by feel with you aboard. It may be a good idea to check the oil level in each fork leg to see if they are set at the factory setting. 120 millimeters spring side and 60 millimeters rebound side with the springs removed and the forks fully compressed. A few millimeters up or down will make a large difference in bottoming feel and feel through the midstroke.
