Fork height in triple clamps
 

Does anybody know what the factory height above the top triple clamp is? I took mine out but forgot to measure first

There are recessed lines in the top of the outer fork tubes. Factory height would be with the top line in the fork tube at the top of the triple clamp.

Most are on second line from top(5mm) here in Aus. Run mine third line down(10mm).

It really is what feels best to you. The more you raise the forks, the faster it will turn buy you lose straight line stability.

It depends on many different things like your riding body placement, spring rate, preload and relationship between front and rear suspension. You can use the fork tube height in the triple clamp to fine tune your setup.
