Re: Hi all, newbie from York, suspension advice plz
I have been out today, armed with a screw driver. Messed about with the settings, starting to deem a bit more comfy now. I have never owned or ridden one of these before, but starting to have a bit of fun, settings at the moment are soft/medium. Seems to be working so far for me.

Hi all, newbie from York, suspension advice plz
This is probably in a post somewhere. But here goes.
I have just got an R1 5vy. Just wondering best settings for suspension, I'm 6ft and nearly 16st. It just feels like I'm riding right over the tank and I can't see instrument panel as the screen is in the way.
Ta muchas
