I Set up my new Matris R rear shock today and the objective verdict is................Bang-fuk-eee-ooo! :mrgreen:

The setup is very close to the shipped baseline. I really only had to speed up the rebound 2 clicks, and turn in 1mm of preload...also firmed up the low speed 1 click.

I did have to swap springs in the front end back to 1.05 s, and raise the oil level in the forks 5mm.
The Ntx is so well balanced now it is spooky...the only limit was the ice cold pavement and the leaf litter

Current setup
forks ak-20 carts 1.05springs
Matris R shock nearly as delivered settings

this is a beautiful bit of kit, it is also lighter, and easier to install than the factory shock is.

too bad I have to cover it with a sock
 
nice to hear you have improvements. i am about to replace the front dampers and with the amount of choice find it difficult to decide.
