Had my suspension looked at at the Phillip Island ride day last Monday.
WOW! What a difference!
S.W. Racing did the setup, and tweaked throughout the day, trying to get a good balance between good for the track, but not too hard for the road. I stated that I do mostly road riding.
My print out just arrived by post, as they promised it would. And it got me wondering, what setting do most people run, or like me from before, do you just ride and assume it's ok?
My stats: I'm about 82kg(wringing wet out of the shower)
Stock '99 busa
End result:
front
fork travel: 94
travel left: 35
Rear
Top out 444
Static sag: 431 13
Rider sag: 412 32
Preload
L/comp 7
Rebound 11
Not too sure if it means anything to anyone, but if you are playing and get lost it's probably not a bad place to start.
Heidi also had her suspension done on the day, almost same bike, lighter pipe, so I'm wondering what the magic numbers that they came up for you are Heidi?
