you didnt have a damper when you were here so we never really got to roll far but ya i like my front to dive and stay down thats why i have my rebound set full hard but i do have my compression set kind of hard so the bike doesnt dive too much and bottom out

style has alot to do with set up , when im doing really fast approach stoppies i pick up kind of slow so soft is fine but i still leave the rebound setting at full hard so the forks come back up slow but for short approach you can be alot more aggressive on your pop so a slower compression is better so the forks dont hammer down ..

true dat I run thicker to slow down my rebound never had no issues except for the occasional flip good tip add zip ties to your forks
you can gauge you settings then if im comming in 3rd gear pinned and grab the brake i want it to plant straight down that way I have a less chance of wash out listen to a2k he knows his stoppie game

that does seem the way to go thanks

np homie hope you get them dialed in
took about a month to get mine perfect lol
also another tip wright down your settings as far as compression rebound clicks
and spring rate height also if you do change fluid viscosity wright that down to
might even go as far as the brand name because you get a diffrent feal with diffrent brands of fluid had to replace my seals and forgot all setting and fluid i was running
it was a nightmare when I got it back togeather
hope this helped yeah out
