Default ZX6-R shock and emulators on Curvy - setup figures?

I have just put a B1H rear shock and 0.85 springs, emulators and 15w oil on my curvy. It feels much better but needs adjustment, i haven't cut my spacers yet in the forks. I was wondering if anyone could give me tonight a static/rider sag setting front and back and where they measured it from.

Im going to cornwall on thursday so it would be really good to sort this before then. Thanks org!

Doesn't matter where you measure sag at back, I touch tape to edge of swingarm bobbin and use blob on end of bungee hook... pick 2 points and stick with them.

Just set bike sag 25mm front 10mm rear and see what happens.

No, bike/static sag.

Well i had a check today and the static sag was 12mm on the front and 30mm on the rear. So yeah.... i knew something felt wrong. I have readjusted it but not ridden it yet. Looking forward to that tomorrow. Thanks for your help!
