    Question 200x Suspension Problem

    I am having a problem with my 200x. When I push down on my rear end, it comes back up very slowly. I just replaced the swingarm bearings so it's not them. I swapped out another mono shock from one of my other 200x's that had great suspension and iit did the same thing. I have no idea what it could be. Any input would be great. Thanks alot!

    There is a knob on the bottom of the shock to adjust the rebound. Just twist it for more or less rebound.

    The dial is numbered, 1 is fastest rebound, 4 is slowest.

    I just rebuilt the rear shock on my 200X and learned about the rebound rate knob down there. There isn't a lot of difference but when you go out and ride it you feel the difference a lot more then you think you would. I think I have mine set on 2 or 3. I didn't want it going up really fast yet I didn't want it to stay squatted too long after hitting a bump.
