How much do you weigh? What tracks do you ride? What track day group do you ride in?

As above, you will spend a lot of time with the front in the air. I'm running the bike high at the front, low at the back which is regarded as the right way to go to get the "right" swingarm angle and use 16/44 gearing so the wheel is pushed pretty far back in the swing arm........wheelies are...

No - only those listed. I've found the OE ones give more feel and power than any of the others I've tried. The only "problem" is that they are more expensive than the others and I go through a set in 3 track days. I'll be interested to see what a ?300 set of pads feel like when I try the SBS...

I've tried SBS DC, SBS RS and BMW HP pads and none of them were as good as the OE Brembo ones on road or track. I've got some SBS DS to try this year and I will be peed off if they are not a step forward.

I was there Weds...........first day of the year and it showed....soooooooo slow.

I got them off Ebay - fit exactly the same as the OE ones.

Chinese replacement kit.................that's what I've done for the past couple of years.

As simple as "that what it says in the Gen 3 handbook".:chuncky: I couldn't understand why either but that's what it says.

When I had my forks done by MCT, he said that I should run the rear at minimum preload as the spring is too firm and it's not an easy job to change. You also need to have the bike switched on before changing the rear preload.

Isn't there a way to return to the factory default settings through the dash?

It's only 20 mins away................:worked_till_5am:

I've had two JW double headers cancelled but hope the June onward dates will go ahead. Anglesey didn't run any days last year until Wales was allowed to have 30-per-group-outdoor by the covid regs - that was allowed after 26 Apr so hopefully they'll be running soon. NL and JW were allowed to run...

Not really.............just a short arse.:tears_of_joy:

MCT carried out the following: 10nm springs 7.5w fork oil 100mm air gap modified preload spacer (no idea what he did) That was for a 74kg rider (normal clothes) using the bike on road and track.(fast group)

I had the springs changed on my Gen 3 and it really improved the feel from the front end - MCT carried out the work and he also changed the air gap. I'm 74kg and I think he fitted 10's but that was after telling him it would be used quite a bit on track - I'll check when I get home.

I'm assuming your's is a Gen 3? How heavy are you?

I assuming the Gen 4 DDC set up is totally different to the Gen 3 as you could change the springs / air gap in those for a positive difference.

I've just bought a KTM as a road bike - rear nut is 250Nm...........

As others have posted........tyre pressures from the Tyre Man - they might feel strange at first but it'll make sense after a few laps - and have fun. 20 minute sessions might not sound a lot but it is when you're on track and make sure you have plenty of water. Enjoy.

I've fitted a set of ABM Multiclip's to my Gen 3 - adjustable in all planes.
