February 13, 200917 yr Hi, I recently bought a 2009 gas gas 125, one of my friends also has the same bike. After riding a trial, I had a go on his bike which had much softer suspension, and was a lot easier to hop/endo, my suspension settings have not been changed. I was just wondering how to change my settings to be softer as the gas gas manual does not explain how to do it clearly? Many thanks, nick
February 13, 200917 yr What are the oils like?....Change the fork oil and perhaps consider a rear shock service. Most bikes should have this done every 1-2 years. First - Check you have the correct sag settings. Your suspension should sag 30-33% front and back when you are stood naturally on the bike. From there experiment with the damping both directions - too fast and the shock will bounce up, too slow and it will have a dead or slow feeling. Set it half way between.
