Hab die Diskussion gerade erst zufällig gefunden, weil ich wissen wollte ob mein Fahrwerk "normal" ist.
Subjektiver Vergleich zwischen 2010er SMC und 2013er SMCR.
Bei gleichen Einstellungen ist die 2010er um Welten härter.

Moin.
Geht ja hier auch um Fahrwerksunterschiede. Daher zu meinem Federbein meiner 08er SMC. Ich finde es recht hoppelig und fand, das der 2012 meines Kumpels angenehmer. Mein Frage dahingehend. Da ich der Kiste das hoppeln abgewöhnen will. Wäre es eine Lösung einfach ein Federbein eines späteren Modells zu nehmen? Da ich Service hin oder, her mir nicht sicher bin ob ich mit dem "Bein" dann zufrieden wär. Bin halt noch sehr von meinem Zubehörfederbein von Bitubo an meiner Suzi verwöhnt. Was meint ihr?

Hi, ja das geht. Bis 2016 haben die eine 80er Feder hinten. Das passt.
Gruss

Good Morning.
This is also about chassis differences. So, about the shock absorber on my '08 SMC. I find it quite bouncy and found my friend's 2012 more comfortable. My question is, since I want to get the bike to stop bouncing. Would it be a solution to simply use a shock absorber from a later model? Service or not, I'm not sure if I'd be happy with the shock absorber. I'm still very spoiled by my aftermarket Bitubo shock absorber on my Suzuki. What do you think?
Do you mean bouncy / mushy like on a cloud, always going up and down or bouncy like kicking back in your butt?
If it's mushy then close the rebound adjuster (bottom adjuster), like 4 or 5 clicks is a good beginning.
If it kicks back then you have other issues, tire pressure can also affect comfort.
This is a temporary fix, get it serviced, it's a shock with a bladder, not a floating piston, it needs to be serviced more often, not every 17 years.
Don't put a shorter shock from a 2012 to 2017 SMC R, the bike will push wide at the end of corners and you won't have a very good feeling with the front tire, the overall balance of your bike and the fork length are not made for that shock at all.
You also have very different seats so this contributes to the comfort btw. -
The Shocks dont have a bladder and are not shorter.

Wrong on both.
2008 SMC and Enduro shocks have a bladder instead of an internal floating piston, it's probably the only KTM with a bladder from the factory as far as I know.
Later SMC, Enduro and Enduro R bikes don't have the same shocks.
2008 to 2011 SMC have 265 mm front and back for suspension travel.
2012 to 2017 SMC R have 250 mm at the back for total travel.
As per the setting lists, the shock are shorter on the 2012 to 2017 models.
2008 to 2011 ---> 95 mm shock stroke / 400 mm shock length (eye to eye) 265 mm at the wheel
2012 to 2017 ---> 90 mm shock stroke / 395 mm shock length (eye to eye) / 250 mm at the wheel

Its the travel, not the shock length

Its the travel, not the shock length
It is both, as per the setting lists.
It's minimal to the eye but once the shocks are fitted it's a clear difference.
The fact that they have gone for a softer spring makes that even worse but that's another topic. -
That guy has a 690 SMC standing around and wants to put the suspension in his Enduro. Thats it. And it will work.

That's not what TLandi said nor asked, I was talking to him so were you (by the way) so I don't understand why you are now talking about Chrismc23.
