« on: July 19, 2010, 11:56:21 PM »
Hey guy's I just bought my son a used kx65. This is my first mini racer, Do I set the race sag on the 65 just like I do on my big bikes?

Yep, just not as much and the forks are probably more old fashioned than you are used to. They are not comp adjustable really. One tube controls compression and the other rebound. I read once that Kawasaki recommends around 70mm for the 65.

How much does your boy weigh? I have this .pdf that helps select proper springs depending on weight.
