Depends on your leverage ratio and angle, but sounds like way too much though. We run a 850lbs on the stock x4/x4r Pitster Pro. 1200 is what you will find a a real high leverage ratio bikes making it hard to get a progressive feel.
well im getting the upper shock mount from ncc. i want something that isnt going to bottom out. im going to ride as much track as trails. what do you suggest?
Everything will bottom out. You have to ask yourself what kind of riding you do and where you ride. No use having a spring that's gonna beat your arss to death only to bottom out on that one big jump you do.
