sag

Hi all!
does anyone know the proper static sag for xtr (front and rear)? Factory data or personal experience maybe!
Thanks.

I take it you mean the suspension sag when you sit on it?

If so i think its suppose to be around 1/3 of the suspension travel allowing 2/3s for imperfections in the road and the 1/3 of sag allows up movement for wheelies and jumps

Yes my friend, that sag. I cannot find factory numbers or recommendations, wheel off, unloaded, rider on, front and rear. Nothing in the manual, which wasn't case for my previous bike.

I thought this was going to be a thread about women and the effects of gravity

ehhh pass not to sure on this one. What was your last bike that had these figures?
but as i said i think its normally 1/3 to 2/3 so maybe its just going to have to be a trail and error type thing

I had honda. 1/3 is something as general guidance, but again... Maybe someone is so kind to measure his new bike and share the numbers with us
?

Anyone?! Static sag on my bike (11 000 km on the clock): front - 5 cm, rear - 4 cm. Good or bad?
