Any sugestions for setting up the rear shock on a stock Z400? I weigh 160 and am experienced rider. I will be mostly desert trail riding, with some occasional sand action as well. Probably not a lot of big jumping will be done with it. Any sugestions from you guys who have played with the settings on your own shocks (front and rear) would be greatly appricated!

Thanks in advance,

i left mine in stock settings and i weigh 160 with all the gear.

out of topic question here, but how do you get to dove springs from glendora?

 

210 West to the 5 North to the 14 East and keep going! Look for the Sign a mile or two past Red Rock Canyon, turn left, and go in bout 2 miles to the main camp aera. I would recomend grabing a map at either Red Rock or the Jaw Bone ranger stations for your first trip. Takes about 2.5 hours towing my trailer! When ya goin?

i have no idea on when i'm goin but let me know if you go. we can either make a family deal or just a pack of guys.

 

I kept my settings how they came and they are fine.

 

Thanks guys...hopefully some more people will chime in on the settings. My trailer is @ Weekend Warrior gettting a fuel tank installed, when I get it back, Dove Springs will be a weekend away ASAP! It's killin me to have a brand new quad just sittin in the garage!!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

since your in glendora why don't you go to azusa? unless it's still closed [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

Im not sure if your kidding or not! Have you ever been up there? It is an extreamly limited place to ride...you can cover the whole aera in about 5 minuntes...not too exciting eh? From Dove Springs, you can ride from the desert, all the way up into the National Forest Aera! It's about a 3 hour ride...round trip...and much more fun than riding around in circles in the bottom of a muddy canyon. But if mud is what your lookin for...Azusa is the place to go. Mostly modified trucks go there to sit in the mud and hang out. That answer you question? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
