• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

G'day.
What sag, front and rear have you guys ended up with? I've been playing around but can't find a setting that I find comfortable.
I have the Sacks on the rear that have been added with a spring to my weight and a fork with smrr internals. I know I may be the only one with this setup but any help is appreciated.
 
Revalved forks, Ohlins rear 5.4 spring 80-85mm rear sag. Remember sag can change 4mm from a full tank to empty. This is road setup I usually cbf changing at the track.
 
I talked to one of the fastest A Graders over here in WA (also races in Europe) and he runs 16-18mm static and 70mm race.

Make sure your tank is as full as it would be for racing and your best bet is to stand on your pegs straight up n down to measure race sag.

I ran this setting today and it feels good but it was pissing rain so I couldn't get a good read on it.
 
I've heard from Motosupplies in UK (they have been running the 449 in UK and World Series) that the front should be hard and the rear soft.
So I presume that what ever other people has on there bikes may not count on ours!
 
When I went up a few spring rates in the rear or got the wobbles, better now I went back.
