Is all explained her Simon, download the file and print off a few copies and use them for each circuit you visit.

You will want a gap of 5-10mm left at the bottom of your forks after full compression ( put a cable tie on your fork leg, go out and brake hard, the distance left between the cable tie and the bottom of the fork stantion is the gap), the smaller the gap the better the turn in of the bike after breaking into a corner. if the forks rebound to quick, you will also find the bike will drift out on the exit of the corner, if this is the case try thicker fork oil.

This document will help explain problems and remidies
