    You can stiffen the forks and shock by turning up the dampening adjustments. Turn the fork and shock adjustments clockwise.

    However, being 98k you are a little heavy for the springs in the forks and shock so you probably won’t get great performance unless you have the suspension resprung and revalved.

    Cheers.

    I recently purchased a 2001 XR650R and am interested in lowering the suspension…Is there an after market lowering kit available? The suspension works very good but the seat height is a problem with my short legs..
    thanks in advance…
