From Tony....
My Yamalink will be going on my 2001 yz250f with stock suspension. I weigh around 165lbs with all my gear on. Is there any special setup needed for this particular bike or should I just follow your general install and SAG setups??
Our reply...
Tony,
The written installation instructions will basically say "install YamaLink,
reset sag (you have two options for maximum lowering or more aggressive
riding), dial in rebound or compression to personal preference and slide the
fork tubes up at a starting point of about 4mm."
It's a simple step by step. Your weight is spot on without needing a heavier
spring. Yamahas are sprung for about 180-185 pound maximum rider; the YamaLink has an increased leverage ratio so if a rider was on the border of needing a heavier spring with the stock setup they'd most definitely need one with the YamaLink. But setting sag is the #1 most important thing you do a bike whether stock or with a YamaLink.
