Front end setup for track days?

Harryredchow » Tue Mar 29, 2011 6:51 am

I did a track day again yesterday on my MC21 R and it was really great fun. However, I felt I was losing out in the braking to bigger sports bikes. The main issue seems to be the initial bite of the brakes and the dive of the suspension, which really upsets the bike and throws a lot of weight on your wrists and the bars (may be partly my riding style). My plan is to rebuild all of the calipers and change the pads and lines, but also feel the font forks maybe need setting up for me. So here are my questions.

1. What would be the best (easiest and most cost efficient) improvement for the front end?

2. Are up rated spring available for the R spec forks?

3. Will MC28 SP forks fit and if so do they need the calipers from an MC28?

Lots of questions I know, but I would welcome any other comments too, as the track lark is great fun and I want to make some improvemenst next time and show the big boys that the strokers can still do the business Embarassed

THanks.
