Been tweaking a bit. At 6'4" 250 lbs I knew the stock suspension settings were not ideal for me. I don't push my bike as hard as some of you through the twisties like some of you but I am starting to ride more aggressively through them and have noticed a little wallowing through the turns.
Step 12 was to add 1 click to the front rebound damping and set the preload at 5 turns out. Small change made a big difference. More stable and handles the bumps with more stability. Slow speed handling improved noticeably.
Step 2 was to crank down the rear spring about 1/4" and ad 1 click of rebound to the rear and one more to the front. I think this is where she needs to be for right now. I may add one more click of rebound to the rear to keep all things even. So final settings are two clicks in from stock on rebound damping front and rear. One turn in on preload for the front and 1/4 inch tighter than stock on the rear preload.
Still kinda soft for my weight but I'll try it there for a while and see how it goes.
