Well, unless you're around 50kg dripping wet, and the suspension is in tip-top condition, it's unlikely standard JDM settings are going to be of much use!

Check the HRC recommended base settings on the main site and go from there, would be my suggestion.

Basically, you're probably going to find that most if it will need to be wound in pretty much to max until you get it all re-valved and re-sprung to suit your (western) weight. Great if someone's already done that, but most haven't.

The brakes shouldn't be at all grabby or judder -- the standard NSR setup is very good. I experienced some brake judder with a new tyre once, that hadn't been balanced correctly. Dead fork oil can be a contributing factor, as can the head bearings and old worn/contaminated brake pads. I did have some discs that were warped too, but they were RVF discs on an HRC front-end. I've never personally come across NSR discs that have warped.
