As I am bone idle & can't be bothered to do it correctly, what suspension settings are everybody using on the road? My suspension is currently rock hard (I'm 14st ) also it wobbles on white lines, falls into slow bends & needs effort to hold a line. Tyres are well worn Metzeler Z3s.
Mood: #65 Double Desmo Due Champion - Class B 2007, Class A 2009
I spoke to Nelly about this last night as my Jap crap track bike runs very soft.
My SS was setup with Hyper-pro suspension and runs very hard. This is quite normal and I ended up increasing the damping on the front for the track days. I'm also similar weight to you.
D207RR's on at the mo and seem good on the roads as well as track, although the Diablo's seem to be favourite with everyone.

Originally posted by 3narf I downloaded the manual from the Ducati website- for some reason it gives front preload and damping settings, but only rear preload...
Ignore that- I just read it again, PROPERLY this time...
