sag is a fixed setting,makes no difference road or track.it's from then you adjust your comp/reb settings to suit your riding

The ideal number for sag should be:

For racetrack, 30 - 35 millimeters for the front and within 25 - 30 millimeters in the back.
For street, 35 - 45 millimeters for the front and 30 - 35 millimeters in the back.
Adjustments can be made according to the specifications of the motorcycle.

If you can't get your sag right after adjusting it ? that is a good indication that your spring rates are off. If you have maximized preload and have too much sag ? that is a sign that you need stiffer springs. If you have taken all the preload out and still have too much ? your springs are too stiff.

3) for messure the length of extended forks and after that messure with rider to count rider sag. , preload must be fully stiffer or softer or does not metter ?

The bike in question has a modified rear swingarm and is built for drag racing. Nothing about it is oem. So the 17rr defaults don't apply
 
not sure i'd fancy riding a drag bike on the road,or track tbh..
