great info on the evolution of shims and bleeds!!! Thanks Doug, really appreciate your effort putting it all n the video in such clear manner

[@vigneshkannak2133]

this is the best content i have seen in youtube about bleeds. very clear and informative.

[@dirtbikedave9055]

This guy is amazing. Thanks for the info in such a consumable format.

[@rickriede2166]

That's some informative content you've got going on there Mr.It's really helping with my understanding of how to tune my own dirt bike suspension beyond just twisting dials. Thanks and Keep em coming!

[@johnfitzgerald2223]

really interesting content. It's so great to have access to this information. Thanks again for another really educational video.

Great videos. No one shares this info like you do. I’m in the off road desert race world, bleeds are usually jus drilled holes. Cool to see different options. Thank you!

[@MakeAndCreateSimon]

Thank so much for explaining. I like your video's. You are in business and willing to share your knowledge. I appreciate.

[@lenaeleomar]

Thanks for making these videos, very informative and good watches. Keep it up

Great video. and thank you for your time. I have raced dirt cars for 35 years and have rebuilt and valved my own shocks for most of my racing career. I don't drive anymore I just help my son who races open motor late models and other drivers and try to pass on a little bit of what it took me a ling time to learn. Who knows I may need parts in the future and we can talk. God Bless and again thank you.

Hi Douglas, thanks for your great videos, extremely helpful….. Please could you advise me what nitrogen pressure is recommended on a STX46 shock number AP8271 Aprilia RSV 1000R Factory bike? Thanks.

It seems without sufficient bleeding the low speed damping causes the sharp rise in the graphs until it levels off. Is a linear line the goal? What does the point where the lines connect affect when it moves up or down the graph? Does an offroad configuration look significantly different on the graph than on-road?

[@KaiMundsinger]

Hey Douglas, great videos! I think I finally start understanding how shocks/forks actually work. I've always wondered what it actually means if they claim (from the outside) adjustable rebound and compression in a 20/80 ratio (I saw this with MC forks). Am I right this practically is a bleed like the 5666 24? Fully open one direction and less open the other direction, thus the adjuster closes the bleed valve which effects rebound/compression with its different openings for either?

[@ralphwatten2426]

So does a "shock man" in a dirt late model trailer go crazy trying to get the valving right on a really bumpy track. I'd expect so with all the different ways to go about setting the rebound with I think would be more important than compression. I had to look up hysteresis.
