ok noob here today i brought my first fully a 2007 big hit 3 nice and brown.... over the last couple of days ive gone through about 160 pages looking for helpfull info so i have some idea of what i have the bike has only had one owner and the guy rode the bike for 6 months and has been in the basement ever since everything is stock and in ok condition even has orignal tyres and grips will put a photo up tomorrow, now i know the forks are the 888 rv so you cant adjust the pre load ? is my only option to add oil and get the stiffer springs ? also i noticed the rebound adjuster turns about 4mm and does nothing. the fork is really soft well to me ive only ridden it up the drive atm but im 82kg so im guessing im a bit heavy.
the rear seems stiff on the other hand well at the first point you put pressure on it is that normal ?
yes ive changed a few things since this post and bike rides pretty good ive put in a 500 spring in the rear shock put a 2.5 minion dhf on and just put a set of sram guide breaks on
