Stefan's 2011 YZ450F suspension lowering kit for woods riding and racing

Stefan writes..... I bought a 2011 yz450f and I'm setting it up for the woods.  The front end feels too busy and I want to make it turn slower and more stable.  I'm 210lbs "C" class enduro rider.  Which link would you suggest to make things more stable?  I'm not concerned about buying a new rear spring as well since I'm borderline too heavy for the stock one now.  I am 6'2" so I'm also not concerned about lowering seat height as much as mellowing out the light front end feeling.

As you know stock is 5.7 kg/mm and at 210 pounds before gear it is recommended you use a 5.8 kg/mm.
I'd get that 5.8 kg. The YamaLink I'd recommend is the RACE version, NOT the 1.5 inch version:
