MX Training - Stefan Everts - Suspension Setup

A 'how to' from WP Suspension on how to setup your suspension.

[@JAndrioli]

wow. I've been searching and watching many suspension videos online and finally this is the one with decent, correct, well presented information in a compact video. Congratulations to this dutch guy, despite the little accent this is a wonderful explanation video.

[@nuttysnpdg]

I could listen to this guy talk about bikes all day lol

[@BrandonKent136]

I need some help. I ride a suzuki and the bike doesnt feel planted as much as it should. the back end likes to go side to side coming out of corners hitting a jump and the front end likes to get headshake on some jump faces. PLEASE HELP!!

[@motoxbuddy]

to expand on that KTM was MX2 in 2003 Ramon,2004 Townley,2008 Rattray ,2009 Masquin,2011 Roczen.

[@aahhzap]

Hey Thank you, Very good video

[@ThisIsGoogle]

I ride a Yz 450F from 2012, and I can't get the rider sag past 80 mm, what am I doing from (difference between on floor and on floor with rider on bike)

[@motoxbuddy]

sounds like you need the next softer spring.

[@Kopax7]

make sure when you take the first measurement there is no weight on the back wheel (on the stand)

[@luke726]

Measure the riders sack wtf lol

[@yamahayz228]

can some one help me with this i just bought a used bike and the low speed clicker and the high speed nut dont spin independently. For example if you try and turn the low speed the high speed turns with it at the same time. The bike a a 07 yz125 i was wondering if there would be anyway to fix this or do i have to buy a whole new rear shock for 900+

[@hondaman3317]

try holding the high speed with a wrench and turning low speed out. it is probably turned in so far it's stuck.

[@andrewstambaugh8030]

It could also have a worn out seals on the high speed, allowing less friction. Just a thought.

[@KidDirtBike]

why in the world do you have a 2012 yz450f if you dont know how to measure your sag?

[@MetricHotrodsdotcom]

By the way, KTM has the 2003 AMA 125 National Championship with Grant Langston, 2 SX wins so far with Dungey, And won BOTH MX1 and MX2 last year in the GPs with Cairoli and Roczen. You must not even watch MX. Anyone who actually watches MX would know that.

[@jonasv19]

He doesn't ride with stock suspension

[@BrandonKent136]

i lift things up and put them down

[@ThisIsGoogle]

I know how to adjust sag, my particular suspension is just acting according to physics.

[@ATMTRADED]

When you take a corner sit all the way to the front so the rear doesn't have to mutch grip

[@mvz1991]

XD hup holland hup wim peters shocks ftw dat accent ook XD

[@ktmrider53]

@rdavidharris That's funny because I had a Yz450f and a KTM 125sx and I sold the 450 because it handled like shit and I bought a KTM 350. :)

[@That-Guy.]

His voice :O

[@12sem12]

for me ktm feals the best for handling actually.. and honda being last.

[@AlexK611]

i think you need to stiff your re-bound bro!

[@KidDirtBike]

really now?!?!? cool story...

[@HorsepowerHouse]

I have ridden just about every modern dirtbike, and the KTM stock suspension just ain't that great. Nor is the handling. Power might be great, but, ehhhhh. And who cares about "votes" or "ratings?" It's about how it feels to the individual rider. Ask anyone... I wonder why KTM hasn't won anything in MX or SX to speak of. Great woods bike, obviously. Not so great MX SX bike - especially for the high price you have to pay to buy one and buy parts for at such a high price. RATE THAT!

[@MetricHotrodsdotcom]

Did you come to a KTM video just to spout negative KTM opinions? You know they say one of the number one characteristics of A.D.D. is "seeking out conflict".

[@floralutsch2273]

its also funny, this guy is the pitguy for stefan everts who won 10 worldchaps? he knows what he talks about lol

[@f2496]

@rdavidharris you are clueless lol

[@HorsepowerHouse]

I bet Stefan wishes he were back on Yamaha. KTM Suspension is awful in comparison. Ask anyone who has ridden both brands. LOL

[@KidDirtBike]

if you know how to adjust sag then why are you on this video?
