racetech goldvalve

just purchased a gold valve for the rear shock. what shim set up should i use to make it softer.

When you contact race tech tell them you want it soft.

Mines pretty stiff, that's how I want it, so posting my shim stacks wont help you at all.

You need to fill out the Digital Valving Search and add your code or call Race Tech
I'm a big guy, 280#. I went with a spring for my weight and novice B. It was too stiff. I ended up with Novice C rider. Now my set-up is perfect. still a little stiff on bumps/potholes that come up on you quick but I can go WFO over the ruff stuff and the bike is real stable. One of the best mods I've done.
do the forks also

Yes be honest on race tech form B riders are super fast and need harder valving
