PostSubject: gold valve shock question   gold valve shock question EmptyThu Dec 19, 2013 12:19 am

Im getting ready to install race tech's gold valve in my wrr shock but they had a few
problems getting my shim stack info. They ones I got from their dvs when I entered my
rider data wasnt even listed in the charts that came with the valve. After a couple days of phone tag I finally got what they said was the correct ones to use. They stated the issue was something about their charts needing updated.  GAHHHH 

My question is has anybody else here had this happen? and does anybody know what their
shim stack was they used. I know they will most likely be different from mine but im curious as to see the differences between them.

Mine was for a 200lbs rider, oversize tank, B rider, enduro trails

I have a gold valve kit and im running...

low speed compression cl71
high speed compression ch66

low speed rebound rl68
high speed rebound rh70

If you have the chart you will know what these mean.

Im 245lbs and intered myself as a agressive expert in their system(im not that fast lol) as I wanted a stiffer setup.

My rebounds a touch light and the compressions a touch stiff tho.

I run the compression adjuster all the way out and the rebound 5 clicks out, it works great like this but I want the adjusters closer to the middle so I can adjust it for different rides.

Im going to add some rebound and remove some hs compression at some point.

Great info guys!

What about the fork stacks?

Does Racetech offer the upgraded seal head? They didn't mention it when I was talking to them about revalve options...

Too bad Racetech doesn't have the instructions for the WR forks or shock online that I can find. Really want to see what I'm getting myself into...
