Good thing we didn't spend too much effort installing clevis on your new shock. Didn't take close look at comparison before. Yes, it looks like something for small bike as it's very soft:
- coil-spring with smaller wire-diameter is softer
- coil-spring with more coils is softer
So result would've been this new shock would've had more sag than worn-out 250 shock. And its lower spring-rate would have you use up all suspension-travel and bottom out even more often over bumps!
The new-gen 250 shock I'm sending you has one less coil than pre-gen, with thicker wire-diameter for higher spring-rate.
