![]() Hey speaking of that...do you use a partner or do you use a sag measurement kit like this one... http://www.motionpro.com/tech/articl...ing_sag_scale/ |

![]() The problem is you need to measure sag to include when the suspension is completely unloaded, as in rear tire is off the ground. If you want to do that on your own it's kind of a bitch unless you have special stands.

Yea but you only have to measure that once and really,isn't that number in the service manual under "suspension travel"? I mean that number is never going to change right? The numbers you really need to get are when the bike is alone vs with a rider. Can't you get those using stands? |

I'm trying something other than Pilot Powers. I'm getting some Bridgestone BTO16s mounted to my black wheels which are currently being pinstriped. A couple of buddies won't shut up about how nice they are, so I'm giving 'em a shot.

We shall see. I'll be going to my favorite spot on Sunday to break 'em in.

The XB might even have sharper geometry than the 1125. Not sure on that.

yeah the corsa IIIs are lovely, I tried the PP 2CTs and to be honest I prefer the regular PPs to them.
