Title: zx6r suspension set up


Tazmantic - October 10, 2007 10:53 PM (GMT)
Ive been riding my 98 zx6r for a few months now and im sure the suspension is not set up quite right, it looked at the settings and they seem to be set at the values in the hand book which is for a single ride of 68kg and i weigh a little more than that..lol prob about 98kg anyone know how to set it up.....

Thanks :azq

Go on a diet???? :prx I've got the same problem, I'll save up and take it to a specialist. The main issues I have is that the head shakes when you gas it hard on a bumpy road and the front end dives a lot under heavy braking. What issues do you have??

cheeky git..lol, mine was not so much on acceleration but nose diving on breaking, had a search on the internet to try and find some settings but have noticed that the adjusters on the bottom of the forks seem to be very stiff and they dont really click is it poss to pull these apart to have a look at them... :azq

I am sure that they will pull apart, but I guess as part of a fork rebuild. It could be that they are siezed. How old is the oil and is it of the correct level??
