If the spring is the same as the old shock then set the new one up the same as you did before.

Suspension setup is a persons own taste and has a gazillion combinations. Why did you change the shock.

If you are talking about the "sag" of the rear shock it can be anything you want it to be IE how you like it. If you ring up Hagon they will tell you the "rate" of the spring they fitted to your rear shock. Unless you asked otherwise it should be the same as the OEM shock, in all respects, if not better.

Hagon are one of the worlds best suspension people and just around the corner from me in London. Talk to them they know there stuff.
