I can't find it now, but there was a thread where someone asked how stiff they could go without re valving, and ohlins was happy to share that information and it was quite a bit. And you do always have the option of rebuilding to go even stiffer as needed based on your track days.
I believe Ohlins recommendation is +30% max.
So that should be plenty.
We have to keep in mind here that with the Ohlins DFV technology, running rock hard springs is not really beneficial.
With sophisticated damping that reacts FAST, the springs don't need to be buckboard hard.


....hope Ohlins gets this going soon
