need help deciding?

I'm 5'9 185 lbs. What setting does the shock need to be for the twisties, my other fellow riders dont have fz6. They all have fz1's and rockets.

Try 5, then 6 and see what you like. My guess is 5.

There is a massive thread on this topic too. :thumbup:

ok thanks, I just couldn't figure what number for my weight.

Perspective...I'm 213lbs/97kg and I have it on 7. I'd like about 6.7 but obviously that can't be done.
Move it up one at a time and keep the tool handy. If you don't like it. Stop. Adjust and retry. Saves pulling the seat off. Might want a setting for commuting and another for the twistys.
Hope this helps some.

P.S. +1 on probably 5.
Cheers
Mike

Hey Brian, I always kept mine on 5, and I've probably got about 10 lbs on you. (195 lbs)

+1 on trying the different settings and just seeing what feels best.
