Hello, just a quick question for demo owners, i am 150 lbs with gear, and now i have 400 lbs spring and 17mm of sag. And don't know should i go for 350 lbs?
Maybe i am calculating wrong, 240 mm EtE - compressed Ete = sag, but in demos manual it says that sag should be between 19-23 mm. But how can 19 mm of 240 be 25 % ? :-D

They measure by the stroke length of the rear shock.

i'm 170lbs with no gear and i run a 350 lb titanium spring on the 2011 demo.

it's 19-23mm of 76mm.. 3 inch stroke = 76mm

25% of 76 is 19mm.
