I wouldn't mind a copy of the Ohlins files either Athelstan.
JohnW, I have mine set up so that the back tyre just touches the ground when on the centrestand. For 2 up I crank a few turns on the rear pre-load but then I am only 11.5 stone and Jo is less than 8 stone. Bike handles a dream, but as you found it does lean over a LONG way on the sidestand. For track use I usually add 1click extra compression on the front to reduce dive on the brakes.
