Jeff's spring rate for his Yamaha WR250 lowering link

Jeff writes "Hello. I am wondering if the suspension is too stiff for me. I am 5'6" and around 140lbs. What would you recommend for spring rates and sag for someone like me. I ride on the road but I bought the bike more for the bush then road so my concern is getting it lower (yamalink and stock settings are as low as they get now) to the ground.

Any thoughts/tips are appreciated. Thanks Jeff

Our reply: Jeff,

If you have the stock spring rates on the Yamaha and then put the YamaLink on and reset sag, things should be spot on! But resetting sag is #1 most important.
