ciao come mai con il sag a 35mm come dice il manuale la moto secondo me è inquidabile e non riesco ad andare e la moto non fa quello che dico io invece mettendolo a 45 mm riesco ad andare forte e la moto fa quello che dico io? moto 450 sixdays 2010 specialmente nei percorsi hard

@fastinpast actually the video is right. if you have too little free sag (10-15mm), that means your shock preload is tightened down too much to get the proper race sag, and you need a stiffer spring.

[fastinpast]

The free sag (from the bike's own weight) info in print in the video is backward and wrong. If the value is too small ( say 10-15mm) it's over sprung, go to a softer spring to bring into 30mm range. If the value is too big/ soft, (45-50), a stiffer spring will bring it into 30mm range. Don't see how they got that wrong.

After you subtract first measurement from second, what do you do with that number again (the sag)?????????

[gusocorredor]

so sag is basically how much you can pull the bike up without lifting the tires off the ground?? like a sort of "free play", cus i can pull mine up quite a bit before my tires leave the ground, maybe i should tighten mine up a bit

Im very confused, i get how to get the suspension number, but how do u use that number, like say the suspension sag is 3" what do i do to that three inches, where does it go, where does it come into play?

Thanks
