I did a full rebuilt on my 2011 boxxer r2c2 and when i was done the fork felt a lot stiffer than it was before. I currently use the soft yellow spring but i also used in the past the extra soft spring but felt is was a bit too soft and bottomed the fork a lot. So i was thinking of going back to the x-soft but i tried something before doing that.
So what i did is without removing the fork from the bike i removed the motion control and the spring cap so i could compress the fork down half way and then screw back the mission control side before the spring side so it made a negative spring effect and the fork felt a lot better.
Has anybody done this before?
what do you guys think about this?
