Title: Has anyone created a suspension chart for Ducatis or we need to create one.
Post by: howiroll on July 14, 2010, 05:38:44 AM
I know this has been covered but it is surprising that no one has created a suspension chart for Ducati or a starting point for adjustment.  Any ideas from froum base out there if this exists or how we can start to capture everyone settings.  This would be extremley usufull to me and I believe everyone out there to compare the most difficult to adjust item on our motorcycles.  The more data we have the closer we will get to better Ducatis.  This is the best and most simple guide I have seen in a long time below.  What do people think?

Heres a baseline that everyone should follow


Set your sag number to 35mm.
Set your compression damping dead smack in the middle
set your rebound so the bike bounces up evenly and doenst pogo.

You can't say that one setting will work for everyone because everyone has a different setup. A lot of people dont have adjustable forks either. And some bikes have different springs, most have progressive springs and the settings are dramatically different from one weight to another.
