140wt shock oil is like slime you get in the toy stores... I think its too thick too, will go back to 40wt. The rebound is just too slow and it takes much more to absorb shocks. Then again, it runs well without fishtail at nearly full throttle on smooth asphalt... now almost hard as a rock.

How fast should the shock rebound and how much strength is needed to push in the shocks?... I know its technical... just wanted to know if anyone has any details.... just how much is too much... BTW I am using shock piston #2 with standard setup and running stock motor....
if i were you, i'd go with 3 holes piston filled with 60wt ae oil.
that way the shock would have less "pack"/
hope that helps.
