Default Yfz suspension Settings

I have just bought a yfz 450 and like everyone have found the suspension to hard for normal riding, i was wondering wat the best setting for preload, comp and rebound is for all types of riding i ride just about everywhere so i am looking 4 a setting with a broad range so i don't have to continually change it i weigh approx 80kgs or 170 pounds

I am also curious about how soft you can set the suspension. I am going to buy a YFZ in the near future and I am a 120lb girl. Any knowledge would be appreciated. I would consider removing them and having them re-valved if necessary but if I could get them low enough without doing that well.............that would be better.

Turn the preload so it is just a few treads from the top and turn the compression a few clicks softer.

this is good for overall riding, but if you are doing some high speed duning give youself a little more preload.
