I'm (only) 70kg and i think that Japanese have "tailored" the bike for me....
My driving style is... "sporty" but i like the "enduro-travels" of generally soft suspencion that MT has...
So according the advice of mechanic,at front there are 5 big lines showing out -so no preload at all for me- but the compression rebound is fully hard &1/4 back.
At the rear, spring preload position at 5 & compr.rebound fully in (hard).
On those settings i can say that the bike is no more bouncy in the curves but is soft enough for me, has "progressive" behaviour and its predictable..
I like stiff frame with soft suspension better than everything stiff and i prefer not to loose any mm from the front which i use all of its travel (after touch-down from wheelies on more than 160km).
