Re: Rear shock suggestions - I'm overwhelmed.
 

Has anyone else who's fitted a zx10 shock got any good base settings to use. Obviously the kwak base settings will be different to what suits an SV. Only reason i ask is that i've got a couple of long trips coming up and won't have much time to get on the bike before then with my bad arm and could do with a bit of help to try and get it roughly set up before i head out on it. I've set the sag just could do with ideas on rebound and comp settings. As soon as i get chance i'll then be expermenting with different settings. I'm about 15st with kit on and will mainly be doing Dual carriageways and main A roads for the next month or so if it helps.

Ah man I can't remember mine it was that long ago. It was something like 3 1/2 out from full stiff on compression and 4 1/2 for rebound....but don't take my word for it.
I took a small screwdriver with me for the first couple of times...glad I did because the settings I got from sportrider were causing the back wheel to skip around even when going straight!!

I think quite a few people just run with the standard zx settings and seem to be more than happy with it.

I'll have a look at the kwak settings then and see what there like. I'll just make sure i have a screwdriver handy just incase it feels rerally wrong.
