> From the main Leverage Ratio Analysis Menu select “Compare Leverage Ratio Files”. Choose up to 4 files you want to compare. Click the Leverage Ratio Comparison Tab to view the curves.
> At Race Tech we simplify the comparison by setting the Low Point, Mid Point, and High Point. This allows the software to calculate the “% Rise In Rate”.

> Rise in Rate along with the leverage at the Midpoint (Dirt - 150 mm, RR – 60 mm) define the curve fairly well.
For example a 04 YZ 250 has a rise in rate of around 33% while a KX 250F has 15%. From experience this means the KX 250F will have more of a trade-off. It will be more difficult to get bottoming resistance while retaining plushness on the smaller bumps. Experience is the key.
> For other types of vehicles, come up with your own Low, Mid, and High Points. As long as you stay consistent with the Points this gives a simple way to compare.
