Front preload - Nightfury - 31-07-15
Strange question, and more out of interest than anything; Does anyone on here adjust their front preload when you fill up with fuel, and decrease it when the fuel level runs down?
The 2000 FZS600 has a 20 litre tank, when full it will hold about 15Kg of fuel. Surely as the fuel runs down it will affect the sag setting and therefore the handling?

Yes, that certainly is a strange question! :lol
And I'd imagine the answers will be a resounding "No."

I can see your logic but i dont think that amount of weight difference makes any difference on a road / street bike.
Dont the GP bikes have the tank way down low so an emptying tank dose not have so much affect on the center of gravity

I have noticed Dazza often drops his load after a fill up. In fact I think next adjustment will be Sunday
