just remember the rear is operating on approx a 3:1 leverage ratio
that why the rear spring seems so much stronger than the front springs and there are 2 front spring only one rear.... The bike maybe sprung for MX... so the rear will be stronger to handle landings from jumps etc... Depending on your weight... The Japs spring there dirt bikes for a 70-80kg rider.. so look at the spring rates the Japs use on similar bikes/ use to gauge a start point... don't use KTM springing rates on bikes with the PDS shock as they have no linkage... .
