That sounds about right for a stock CR.
I take it yours is a pre 78 model.? Later models had dual shock positions so you could lower it a little and soften the preload.
Hagon can make you a custom set up for about £130. Talk to them, they're extremely helpful.
Thay made me a set up for the turbo Saxon and they're brilliant.
