Has anyone changed the front/rear pre-load (assuming standard shock/forks here) from the factory settings? The front felt a bit soggy under braking so I increased the front preload 4 turns (now on '1' according to the manual) and increased the rear to 5.

Front feels a lot better; not sure the rear's any different.

I'd be interested to know how others have got on, especially if you either know what you're doing or had someone who does set it up :)

Cheers.

(Reckon I'm about 12 stone with leathers on, if that's significant)

I'm a bit heavier and have both ends screwed down a little harder, but there's a limit to what you can achieve with the stock equipment.
