Ride Height How do you calculate what height to start at? Is it just trial and error? |

Depends if Julie has got heels on :lol: |
Wet your finger and stick it in the air ;) Chris :burn: |
Raise the rear to Max, drop the front as far as it will go, then keep raising the front of the bike until you stop falling off when you tip in. Actually you don't need to get to that point but just get close enough so that you can push it back up with your knee But don't try using that setup in the wet, this recipe seems to work for Dallas OK |

I'm too thick with this subject to know if you are taking the mick or giving proper advise Kev! |
So I have been told, Ducati's work best the higher they sit, raise the bike bit by bit till it gets unstable on a straight, then back it off slightly and adjust the front so that it will turn but not run wide. The thing is that if you get faster you will have to adjust again as it will behave differantly. Basicly, get it working so that you are comfortable, but remember as you get faster it will need adjusting again to get back to that comfortable feeling. Always note any changes you make and note alongside that what differance it makes on track. Chris:burn: |

You may want to start at the opposite end of the spectrum as Chris suggests The spectrum ranges from It's so stable its slow turning but good in the wet TO It's so Unstable it keep wanting to Tuck the front and is lethal in the Wet Finding the point in between the two that gives you confidence to push the bike is where you want to find, then once you are happy with that you can try going more in the unstable direction and see if it improves your times or your physical endurance, ie. not any faster but as fast for longer |
Kev is right Simon. :) |
