.................after the mods.
front end
suspension running full front preload (.92kg/mm), min rear. comp 7/14, rebound 4 off max, 7.5wt + 100mm air gap.
initial thoughts are more rear preload needed, and the front was slapping off some of the bumps. the 'take your hands off the bars whilst slowing down' test showed a very slight shimmy @35-ish.
ivans
mine always wheelied in first on the power, but 2nd gear mono-ing is soooo much easier. 4.5k, dip the clutch and wahey! and much more controllable than before, feels like the hand of god keeping the front wheel up.
5 and 6th gear roll ons feel alot stronger too.
