I look forward to hearing how Simons testing goes and what he ends up with. I will still maintain setup is an individual thing, so you need to go out and test and find out what works for you. Even for the same Bike and rider but with different forks, you should end up with the same settings but possibly different measurements, especially in a case where fork leg outers and inners may be a case of mix and match I have two sets of forks here both are for a 916/955/996/998 A set of Ohlins FG Widetrack Superbike forks and a set of Marzocchi RCA50 Forks Fitted with the Same rate Springs and the damping can be set up the same. Set so the spindle is the same distance from the bottom yoke and the same amount of sag If I set the Air Gap so that the forks travel 120mm the Marzchozchi RCA50s would leave a tie wrap with 20mm short of the lower leg where as the Ohlins FG Wide track forks would have crushed the tie wrap ino the lower fork leg Alternatively I gould set the air gap for 110mm of travel leaving the Marzocchis with a 30mm gap between the tie wrap lower fork and with the ohlins a 10mm gap Both forks are set up the same to suit the bike yet according to some of the information I see one set will always be wrong how can this be Checkout the Desmo Due Paddock on Facebook |
