Couple Questions. Both me and my friend (Slater on this board) purchased new 09 red Boxxers. After a week at whistler Slater's fork is not getting full travel with both the low speed and gate all the way open. He claims to get 7.25" on a really hard bottom out (Clown Shoes Drop).
My fork has only 3 rides on it, with the same settings only gets 6.75" of travel.
So, are they overfilled from the factory with oil? Need shim adjustments?
Also, my travel goes down to about 5" with one turn in on the gate valve. Why so stiff?
Both of us like the dampening, they track well and takes hits well, but whats the deal??
Looking for intelligent answers please, not pink bike crap. Thanks
