Fork height

ive been tinkering with suspension lately and seem to have got quite a good mix. the bike was bouncing around alot coming hot in to sweepers. i dialed in more preload and rebound in front and turned rear rebound to 3rd click. the bike still feels high at the front, and ive noticed the forks ar far through the yolks as u can get em.

is their any point in droping down a bit? will it get the butt up a bit more (cos its saggy) will it change weight distribution significantly?

any thoughts?

Dropping the front end to make up for the rear shock doesn't seem like a great idea and will probably cause you problems with ground clearance.

The best thing to do is to get the rear shock sorted which will give the bike a new lease of life.
