im a complete retard when it comes to suspension

*pip* · 07-05-2003, 1:22 AM

im 145 lbs, i ride hard, i cant tear it up in the twisties yet, but i dont fudge around, i dont give a flying fuuck about ride comfort, i want to know what people would recomend setting my forks and rear at as a STARTING point, i bought my bike with 1200 miles on it from a dude that was about 170 lbs and knew how to ride, im guessing its a bit stiff right now, i ride decently, and react well, but my riding ability still improves a bit everytime i ride, so im still getting used to the ride, i dont commute on it - so far ive put 1500 focused riding miles on it, usually in stints of about 30 - 50 miles

all stock

thats it, thanks if you help me out
