Setup notes for San Diego-area riding
Motocross tracks can vary from hardpack to deeper, choppy soil. Your suspension settings should match your pace, track conditions, and how the bike is reacting in key moments: braking bumps, corner entry, mid-corner traction, and jump landings.
If you want help dialing in sag and clickers for your weight and riding style, our team at Poway Powersports can point you in the right direction so the CRF250R feels planted and predictable.
