Other tips and tricks
For on track adjustments and satisfying
your riders needs we could also look at the
adjuster from this angle:
1.
The compression damping from your left
base valve can be adjusted when you need
more compression damping, but you don't
want the damping to react too quick! Let's
say the rider needs more damping during
braking, then close the bottom adjuster 1-3
clicks since this adjustment will have time
to react during braking, but will allow the
front fork to go smoothly over bumps at
hard cornering.
2.
If the rider complains about lack of "tire
feel" you can improve this by closing the
top left compression adjuster (2-3 clicks)
since these adjustments will give a quicker
response. This could also improve the
rider's initial dive of the front fork when he
is applying the front brake NB! By closing
this adjuster too much, can also remove
some comfort and make the fork feel hard
and harsh.
Should the above instructions not be
enough or the standard setting somehow
not meeting the needs for you riders, then
please contact Öhlins racing AB Sweden
for setting information rather than attempt-
ing to modify the setting yourself. We have
a vast setting bank for this front fork with
balanced and matched settings to choose
from.
