  1. dudes, as per I set the suspension settings 2 months ago and used to ride it, I must tell you that the suspensions are fairly fine to me when hard cornering and I am 200 lb; I was scraping parts (fixed after rubbed the center stand stopper already, and also removed the peg rods) and the tires were replaced with Angel GTII The big influence is use of more body positioning during cornering and the good tires, now the confidence and the capability are both great. Almost cornering with double pace in the same corner, keping the line and steering are perfectly fine, the bike level is rigid, no collapsing to the front etc., no bouncing as well as good absorbtion of bumps. I feel like one piece with him right now
  2. Wintersdark these will help me a lot thanks again It seems my new preload/sag figures fairly fixed my problem. I could not scratch them so far. And it feels better But I will definetely work hard on body positioning "the more "oh shit" room you have for corners that get tighter than expected" I like that this was I exactyl what I've meant Cheers
  3. good advises thanks, also working on body positioning :) actually I am not looking for perfect timing just would like to lean as possible as I can when it is needed. The curves are a bit strange here and they are unexpectedly getting sharper etc. so those problems for me a bit safety issue to be fixed. I asked the dealer about trimming the bumpers but they told me that then it might close to the chain, do you think that it is possible. both suspension setting and a bit trimming would be sufficient I guess
  4. many thanks all for your supportive information I also own 900 GT since 2 months. Although I have not troubles during sharp cornerings from the stability and ability point of view, I have problem with the scratching pegs and center stand which makes me afraid from more lean angles when needed. I'm 90 kg/around 200 pounds. I have just configured the front and rear preloads by myself, the latest sag values are around 45mm front and 42mm rear and I hope that this will sufficiently increase the ground clearance. The stock sag values were around 50 mm and a bit more. Also I slightly increased the ribound and compression following by the increased preload. Do you think that I am focusing to the right place for the fixing scratching issues, what could be the minimum sag values for 900GT (consider that free sufficient sag still there). If 1/3 ratio is valid for street then 45-40 mm is the minimum for tracer where max travel around 140 mm. should I really remove the center stand and remove the peg rubbing sticks? Any advise? Many thanks in advance.
