Recommendations for Power Valve settings for Gnarly?

What KTM/Husaberg 250/300 PV setting should I run for Gnarly single-track, rock gardens, or Endurocross? Green auxilliary spring vs Yellow or Red (Blue, White?) How many turns preload in or out on the adjuster?

Double Kudos if you can recommend jetting for here in SF (Carnegie/Hollister) - Straight taper (CEK, DDK), Dual taper (Honda 13xx, 14xx, JD) or Multi Taper (NOZx)?

125/150/200 riders - Do you like the Langston setting?

The power valve spring is entirely a personal preference, some guys like red some like green, you need to ride and evaluate what works for you. But first your bike needs to jetted correctly go ktmtalk & read there jetting forum it will get you real close. Start with adjuster about flush. I've got a real heavy right hand and am faster on a mx track with green spring, trail riding yellow or red not much difference to me, not sure what bike you have but a lot ktm's have 2 ignition maps the wire is under the tank.
