I'm 5'11 at 220 and changed my set up to the last page on this site , it handles much much much better than stock set up , enjoy !!!


PS , make sure to use the right set up , the site has both track and street as well as combo set ups for track/street , I used the street only under 220 pound rider and I didn't set the sag . works well for me :!:

I only weight about 190 and i used the set up in sport rider from last year when they had the shoot out. I dont have the 70 pro in the front yet, so we'll see how that goes. When i finally put on some new rubber on

I just set my bike up with that setting and boy howdy does it make a difference. I love it. I'm also one of the bigger riders.

Cool cool , glad to hear it's working for ya :cheers

if it still feels like the rear is sagging in 1st from max , don't worry that's just the bike trying to pop a wheelie hehehe ....... the front always feels like it's light to me, seems to be pretty normal though after all it's only 400 pounds soaking wet LOL ........ enjoy
