Suspension geometry question.

das134 » Thu Apr 17, 2014 7:41 pm

I'm running ZX7R forks and an Ohlins rear shock on my MC21.

The fork length is 29inches, compared with the MC21 standard of 28" (correct me if wrong). I have dropped the front end 20mm through the clamps so it roughly matches the original front, and have the rear shock at max ride height.

My question is: What is the best geometry balance for the NSR? I have heard that dropping the front by 15mm over standard is good, but does this take into account standard or increased rear ride height?

I have ridden it with max rear height and full height on the front and it was good, but felt like there was something missing, hence dropping it down on the front and asking the question of knowledgeable people.

Also if it helps, I'm using Bridgestone 250GP slicks.
