I need to setup the front static/rider sag on my USD fork but i'm a bit lost

Are there any suspension setup guides online i can download and put in my bike folder?

There is a lot of stuff on the Racetech website, though I can't link to it directly. If you go to

www.racetech.com

The is a section on the left called "Seminars & Education" which has a lot of useful info.

i can send you a copy of the ohlins manual iif you send me your email address. it is very easy to set up your sag both front and rear but remember if you set up your damping too hard it will transfer the forces to the frame. the sv's like a soft sprung front end otherwise they sit up when you brake in a corner.
