Hey guys,
After scolling through pages and pages of threads for certain suspension settings I thought it may be benificial to start up a database on suspension.
I am not sure how well this will work but time and entries will tell.
There is so much involved and no doubt I will overlook something so if you think of anything else let me know.
I know everyone i sdifferent and we all like different settings but if we all have our settings in one place and say exactly what has been done at least we have a starting point for someone to look at with regards to weights ,setups etc.
Lets see how it goes.
I will insert mine after this trip I am about to go on as they will probably be different to what they are now.
All you need to do is copy the list below, ( sorry about the length), and then paste it into your reply.
Hopefully this will help someone in the future...

Weight of Rider =
Year of bike =

Type of Shocks =
Fork spring rate =
Shock spring rate =
Bike and Rider Sag Settings:

Shock (low speed ..inner screw) setting =
Shock rebound( linkage screw) setting =
Fork oil weight and brand (if known) =

I am not sure how to put this all in a database as the list is so long but we will see how we go.
