| Does anyone know how to soften the spring rate on this 250 ninja? It seems too stiff at times or is this how it should stay? I ride a S50 also and this seems like a tinker toy now ![]()

| The Ninja is a sport bike and should be a stiffer than a crusier. But if you want to make them softer, check the following. Do you have preload adjusters? If so, try backing them out a little bit at a time. Next you can cut the springs, but I don't recommend this. The last thing would be to replace the springs with softer springs. Most bikes are setup for a 150lb rider, but I believe that the springs on sport bikes are a little stiffer.
