2D Forks Sensor for 2015+

[MrSmooth]

Good point, thanks. I am a big chap. I will look into that. Anyway, leave this thread for Carsonr6 and his 2D potentiometer

Yeah I did it on the side stand

Play around with the rear sensor............push it / pull it / twist it.....works for me in the end.

Is the bike on side stand? You need to unload the suspension before calibrating.

Can be done on either the side stand or paddock stands, but suspension should not be fully unloaded(extended)

They can fail occasionally. Sometimes just need to be moved slightly, either by hand or after a short ride

+4/+5 on rebound is the indication that you need stiffer fork springs.

No not stiffer.

+5 means you are slowing the rebound because the spring force (expanding the fork) is already high. +5 is trying to hold the front end down a bit mid corner.

Adding more flow restriction is always slowing movement in a given direction.

More compression, slows movement down the fork, helping the spring act against the weight transfer.

More rebound, slows the expansion of the fork leg against the will of the spring. Stiffer the spring the more rebound is needed to slow its expansion.

Its a tap in reverse in both directions. Full open to closed.

Yes you'right I mixed it up. Softer springs.

Glad to hear your DDC calibration issue is sorted.

Not sure if your 2D Sensor issue is sorted but DrI off here posted on another site recently that he's serviced his pot to get it working again - might be worth a pm?

 

[Carsonr6]

Got it all sorted cheers

what was the issue?

 

[Carsonr6]

I bounced the suspension about and disconnected the rear sensor and then pushed it in and out the garage and that seemed to work. Strange.

What was the issue with the sensor?...........might help others out?

I just left it connected over night but I think the real reason was I didn’t have it mounted and the rod was fully closed and not extended so don’t know if it wasn’t sending the correct signal in that position.
I extended it and switched the ignition on and it seemed to be fine.
