How’s the bike in off road conditions…I’ve heard it is quite unstable even after the suspension is set for off road ? ….iam currently on tiger xrx looking at Rally pro as an upgrade…thanks 🙌
@awesomeagnihotrisvlog I stiffend up the front, per manual, and it is much better. I think it is very good off road. There are very few scenarios where it is a little "wiggly" mostly soft sand but really not bad. It is very nimble off road, I think from the fork angles and rake, so it is easier to pick lines and get through technical stuff. It is also not overly tall so pretty easy to reach the ground when needed. I like it off road now but did take a little to get used to.
Use a socket, long extension and ratchet to adjust the preload on the front forks. Way easier than the crescent wrench, and it's easier to keep track of the turns you are doing. Otherwise, nice video of the process. I've been slowly dialing in my setup too on my 24 900RP
After riding I’m super interested in where you ended up on your settings. I’m about 250lbs with gear and similar on/off road as you described. I have the exact same bike as you. I ended up at FRONT: 75% preload, 10 clicks and 10 clicks. REAR: 50% preload and 1 full turn. Can you share weight and final settings? Have fun out there!
I went one turn off full firm for shock preload. Total of six turns so about 17% softer than max firm. On the rear preload I went 10 clicks from softest. These are firmer than recommended but I am aslo about 250 with all gear and luggage. I have not changed it from how I set it up in the video. It is working well. I might increase preload in the rear a little when I go camping and have more gear but for everyday I like this set up.
I wanted 18 clicks rebound and compression for an off road setting on my '24 Tiger 900 Rally Pro as the manual says but the max clicks on the left fork was only 13 and on the right even 26 clicks 😡. I had to go to a suspension specialist to correct the number of the clicks to 21 on both forks which is the right clicks from factory. Did you check if you have max 21 clicks on both forks?
Is your tailbag the swmotech cargo bag? Waiting on mine to be delivered. Couldn’t find much info about it working on tiger 900s. Glad to see it fits alright.
@ryandoellman7012 yes it is. I have had it for almost 8 years so the new one is probably a little different but it is basically the same bag. It fits and works great.
@danielpineda3656 a click is not a full turn. I went by clicks but it might be full turn, i interpreted the directions as a click.. The nice part is that it is very easy to adjust so you can try it and change it on the ride
thanks good video....😊
Gr8 video, nice and informative..❤ are you using SW motech crashbars or triumph crashbars
@@tomrohan8480 i am using the Triumph crash bars. Installed by the dealer.

@Roo-n9j tha is for the tip. I tried the socket and it works great. I did not think it would fit over the finger adjustment but it does

Mine was the same on both sides of the fork.
@@masbaoutdoors5353 Maximum 21 clicks on both sides?
@@fredh4641 26 on both sides

In the rear suspension, y check another video that says full turns, not clicks.... because a click its not a full turn, what do you think?
