Shock Settings: Am I Weird?
Posted: Sat Jul 10, 2004 10:41 pm
I want to hear somebody's input here and see if anybody else is like this. I have PEP Limted Mass shocks up front w/Eyeball arms for MX. The shocks are amazing but here's where I got called weird today. :wow I like to keep the shocks where they're on their next to hardest setting. (Makes it like a rock in the front-end but on jumps I love it.)
Well, today I and a guy I know and race against both went riding at my local OHV. (Got off work so went riding) Well, we decided to have some friendly MX races on their track. He has a YFZ w/TCS shocks and LSR standard +2 arms, and HMF exhaust so we were pretty equal. We switched who won each time but we both noticed I was beating him badly in the rhythm sections/whoops and we're both pretty good riders usually.
Well. Long story short, he wanted to trade quads and he only rode the track one lap and got off and called me weird! :confused: I had trouble and didn't like his either and we weigh about the same. He said mine was like it had no suspension but that's what I like it set to. (The shocks get like his were and how he liked them but I hate it like that.) Sorry to ramble but anyone else like this? I guess I like it b/c it's more smooth to me by feel. And no calling me weird!![biggrin.gif](http://www.cannondaleriders.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif)
