    What have you bought for the K67?

    Re: What have you bought for the gen4? You have one measure to lower and 3 to set higher. Then you have one measure forward vs 3 backwards. All from the standard ?zero? position. Also you can adjust the peg itself and of course the lever. Gear shift back to front , brake back to front and...

    ride height, swingarm pivot adjustments?

    1 mm she would notice so I would do that regardless. Pivot won?t do much. Else well you will have to consider changing the linkage or spring. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    ride height, swingarm pivot adjustments?

    Manual explains how to change this. There are pre set measurements so you could just change rear ride height up or down and see by yourself how more or less pointy the bike becomes. But you could also influence that a lot with preload and compression settings provided bike is new and you can go...

    The Gen4 DDC thread...vol 1

    First thing is the preload. Problem is that the auto modes work best with not that much preload then if you want track days have to set preload accordingly then mostly race or pro modes would be adequate (provided you set the damping correct) Look it this way you can try at a flick of a switch...

    The Gen4 DDC thread...vol 1

    [emoji4] sure I have. Just to find optimal settings and compare preload settings as well, in general I believe dynamic and race do a decent job on road should one need to go fluid on mountain roads. Just you don?t have the connected app which is a pain. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The Gen4 DDC thread...vol 1

    On the road can?t really see a benefit of this potentiometer at all. Just set your rece pro modes in different settings and done. For track yes. Those having experience and looking for the lap times or amateur racers. Necessary. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    M carbon wheels Vs M forged

    I think they did addressed cracking issues as per many who got them exchanged. I do think they went back with their supplier and improved quality. I don?t think rumors are true just because there are some recent official BMW videos talking about the carbon wheels etc. But since there are many...

    Couple of new owner questions.

    On normal modes up to race you can disable the dash message warning on the screen for tire pressures. But not that of the lights or indicators. Then only on the race pro modes you can also disable the lights warning messages. Tire pressure is handy for race track it will show a red Icon...

    M sport front end feel issues

    The Metzelers have softer carcass so that deflection contributes to a particular feel not everyone likes. I also prefer harder carcass so good to know the now famous S22 is hard. I would normally go for Dunlop Sportsmart TT also harder carcass. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    M sport front end feel issues

    Yes think rather try going on winding roads or a track session first so the fork oil warms up. But that won?t in theory affect the preload. I am kitted at 95kg as well and I am around the 80mm with 3 turns in fork preload. I will go around to validate this so as having travel between this 80mm...

    First Track day on the Gen 4

    Ok now understand. Still using the whole 120mm travel means bottoming up or? If by any reason there is a bump in your way and you?re at full brake at 118mm that slight bump will have you bottoming or the tail dancing etc. That is why I wanted to understand what is your full use of the travel...

    The Gen4 DDC thread...vol 1

    I assume this whole thread is under the premise that the rider has their sag adjusted properly. If this is the case for all posts then we have a good conversation here. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    M sport front end feel issues

    Have you set you sag properly? Because from factory the bike comes without any preload all screws out. And it is thought for a fully dressed 85kg rider and here I also assume with a full gas tank. Therefore any additional weight would need adjusting the sag. I ran it fully out and first...
