Do you like it hard or soft....

Was discussing the fine art of stunting last week, and the topic of suspension came up, so what seems to work best; hard or soft? is it different for wheelies and endos? what about damping?
im so confused

hmmmm... i dont know about for stunting but for road ridinn ive always left my suspension settings standed and for track days just nipped everything up a fraction.

I run a street setup...

Why don't you just soften it all up and see how that feels then go back to your stock settings (just using the old screwdriver n all) and see how that feels...then you can see for your self...???
