I weigh 165lbs (75kg) and ran a 300# spring (with the stock Revox)
I have the same weight and I run 350 manitou Ti spring. The suspension curve on M6 is quite linear, I guess I would bottom out much more often with a softer spring
 
163lb rider was running 300lb ti spring... Frame is for sale due to sponsorship change...

2009 M6 - 150mm dropouts - works blue, Size Small... only ridden half of 2009 season by 40+ year old... Includes Sunline Vone DH headset, Sunline V1 Bars, SDG Ibeam post, SDG I-fly saddle, Azonic seat QR, like new MRP G2 chainguide, Like new Azonic Outlaw Wheelset (black w/ White rims,) Intense tires near new, DH Tubes...will be posting pics up soon - anyone interested - PM me.

Im about 185 with gear on. I currently have a 300lb spring on it, I have a spare 400lb spring and cant decide if I should toss that on it or not. It feels good but I wouldnt mind it being a bit more active.
