Hi all... i just got my ex demo 2014 blade and wanted to check if any of the compression or rebound damping had been played with, especially as the bike has been round a race track...does anyone know if the screws are supposed to line up equally on both sides (i dont mean turned/set obviously they have to be set the same) its just they visually look different now here they are left and right respectively / / / \ one screw head is at a completely different angle despite 4.5 turns on the TEN and 5.5 turns on the COM can any one throw light on why they dont look / / / / thanks...
You ll get noticed better mate if you post a hello in the new members section first............ welcome...... and everyone makes wee mistakes on their first night......
oh right i havent got a clue this is the first forum i have ever been on thanks for the welcome.....will try and find the newbies bit
Front Preload 2 Compression from hard 2 turns out Rebound from hard 1 3/4 turns out Rear Preload 2 Compression from hard 1 3/4 turns out Rebound from hard 2 turns out These settings are very close to those recommended by Dave Moss ( allowing for a lighter rider). found this these are for 12 stone rider Suspension Tuning - Dave Moss Masterclass - YouTube
oh wow thanks didnt think i would get much feed back......the only thing is thats a long way from standard settings do you know what the ride would feel like ?? i am 12.7lbs
No use that Dave on a MY12+ Bike with the Showa BPF Forks! Try this OP! http://1000rr.co.uk/mods-upgrades-accessories-products/13861.htm Oh and yes the adjusters don't Mirror each other when set identically so don't stress over that OCD point!
Don't wanna be Timmy topper, but I'm sure somebody will top us all ,mine is looking like 19.5 lb all the riding gear. Including everything I usually have inc wallet iphone etc. quite surprised
