Has anyone already replaced the bushings for the DC5 (i.e. front and rear arms, sway bars, gear box mount, etc...) with the polyurethane bushings type. I am sure that the bushings on the DC5 will need replacing with age or mileage. I have heard it will be harder than OEM ones. At the same...

I have recently bought the Ohlins PVC setup for the DC5. I was wondering what sort of settings you guys are running on the Ohlins. Specifically, how many clicks for the front and rear. I am looking for something which is not too firm and not too soft. A setting that is in between the two...
