If the R6 route works for you you can save a fortune
Come on R6 brigade lets know your experiences.
There was some improvement in the ride, but I can't say it was a dramatic one.
I am quite sure that I am the problem though, I'm simply not good enough a rider to understand what I'm feeling and make a change to the appropriate adjuster. Apart from getting the sag right all I've done is centre everything and, as that felt a bit harsh on the pot-holed and poorly repaired roads round me, backed off the three damping controls a bit.
So far, I've not had the time to work out how to get the best out of it by experimenting.
If anyone can link to (or write) an idiot's guide to setting up your R6 shock, then that would probably be a big help... particularly for those who've tried the R6 shock and gone back to the OE unit.
