First off, I'm an auto tech, so I'm perfectly comfortable and capable of working on things. But, I don't know jack about motorcycle suspensions or anything about adjusting them. So, I bought this book yesterday online (from www.bullpublishing.com for those that may be interested):
Obviously, I don't have the book yet. But I noticed something today when sitting on my bike. I had never paid any attention to my suspension settings before and have NEVER adjusted anything, simply because I didn't know anything about what I would be doing. So all these settings have been like this the entire time I've owned the bike (bought it brand new last August).
I took a couple pictures of what I saw: Attachments. The first pic is the left fork, the second, the right fork. Do these settings look off to anyone else? I will add that I found my left fork sat about 2mm higher in the triple tree than the right one. (Thanks dealership) I've corrected that and it made a world of difference, especially with the Hyperpro damper on it.
Somebody tell me I'm not crazy.
