Anyone found some good ones,off to pembrey friday,never had a fiddle with them before now (ooer missus),as bike has always handled fine,well to me anyway,can't change steering angle as previous owner snapped off one of the locating pegs and i haven't got round to sorting it yet.Bike is a 98 biposto,showa front and rear,and i'm 13 stone(of hot love.......),any advice welcomed with open arms,(c'mon weeksy you MUST have some settings !).Oh,jewells coming with me to do his first track day,and he is bricking it !!!.cheers all,moggers@arsedrinkfeckgurls.com

I originally set up my 916BP at Pembrey on a trackday, up until thay point I had found it Harsh on the road but after tweeking at Pembrey and watching the lap times tumble I ended up with a bike that i was perfectly happy with. Since then I have fitted a Penske shock to it and tweaked the front to suit. Which doesn't help much.
I was running a 247mm rear ride height with the front end in the raked out position tyre pressures were 31fr/30Rr

have fun

Also mine was set for a slightly lighter rider than you.
