    Dang you do all that in road mode, do you mind sharing your sag setting and weight, I can’t seem to get mine stable like yours is. I have head shakes and the rear wallows around mid corner. Thanks nice riding!

      Hey Steve!
      Yep, 'road' mode works just fine for me.
      I'll have to measure my sag to get you a number. I weigh about the same as you 185-190lbs. I'm 6'2" to get an idea of my center of gravity. Stock rearsets and handle bars. My current settings are 14 turns out on the rear shock, and 5 turns out on the front. Suspension is set to 'Dynamic' and the setting for '2up' riders is also selected.
      Currently, the rear is a bit too stiff still. I'm going to try a couple things next time to see if I can improve that. I hope this helps.

      @@mk3brent 5 complete turns out on the front!? How are you not bottoming out? This is interesting. I’m going to try that. It’s strange how sensitive the handling is with this ddc setup, the more I read in the forums the more I see people struggling with this many even selling the bike because of it.

      @@stevewill3572 I'm reading my notes for when I last adjusted them. I wrote down the front fork adjustment has a total of 11.25 turns. So I am at ~5 turns out from full in. My ziptie looks reasonable in dive, and I feel pretty stable on the brakes. Check out my other video here. ua-cam.com/video/PHGjy0j9vNg/v-deo.html T8 is a fairly heavy braking zone, and the bike is pretty compliant.

      @@mk3brent I’m assuming my bike ddc is working properly, it only has 4,000 miles on it. I ordered new tires pirelli 3’s and I’ll see if that has an effect because the front has very uneven wear from previous owner. I’d like to make a video explaining this process for people struggling with this problem as there are many.

      @@stevewill3572 From my experience, I couldn't feel any changes selecting different suspension modes on the bike when my preload adjustments were way off. It was night and day once I got it in range. Check your sag and everything, but throw a simple ziptie on your fork and see what sort of travel you're getting. Also check your air pressures. Are you riding on track or is this on the street?
