Hi all,

Anybody got a suspension setups for me to try on my 06 Superduke 990?

Roadbike, mainly B roads - I'm about 75-80kgs in kit.

Just thought I'd ask here before seeing a pro

Did you try the street or sport settings in the owners manual?

I personally like the couch like street setting. It eats interstate imperfections all day long and compliant enough for me in the Florida twisties. I mean exit and entrance ramps to the Interstates.

The manual has a couple of set up for you to try.

But nothing compares to seeing a pro and setting up the sag etc

In the meanwhile check these two topics ( thank god the forum is complete from the shitty attack eheheh viewtopic.php?f=5&t=9160&hilit=adjust+preload

First question:
Has the suspension ever been serviced? The forks (and the shock too) are overdue for new oil if that never happened.
Set the sag first. With your weight the rear spring should be compressed in the max 2/3 of the adjustment as KTM takes average European as max 85kg in the original springs.
On the 990 I prefer round the 20 mm mark for the rear.

After you done that try to balance the front sag with that by pushing on the bike tank and seat and make the front and rear go up and down together. Adjust the front accordingly.
Then set the compression and rebound damping to factory road and go from there. Do the same thing to balance front and rear. Adjust one or two clicks at the time.
A common misconception is to set everything track and hard, it gives no feel on the road and most roads are not as smooth as tracks anyway.
