How To Set Your Suspension SAG
Motorcycle suspended in two directions. When confronted with bumps, the suspension compression (wheel closer chassis), then rebounded (wheel bounced back, farther). Your suspension needs to be arranged in both directions with the weight of the bike is the amount of work carried; set your bike depression is getting the right first step.
Sag is how much you fancy machine suspended its rest. To measure sag, we have a helper lift the bike as high as possible, if you have a centerstand, just use it to lift the rear wheel off the ground. Now straight above the seat, fender from the rear axle to the reference point with the front suspension to perform the same measurements. This measurement is zero droop, for our example, let's say the number is about ten inches (250 mm) timeout value. This measurement is known as a no-load or free hanging.
Now, let's bicycle station is usually two wheels, there is no driver. Press the two handles and seat several times, so that the bicycle back to normal. Have your assistant hold bike upright and repeat measurements you made; you will see the weight of the bicycle has been resolved, compression aborted. The difference between the number and value of zero depressions are called static sag.
Finally, sit on the bike riding equipment, feet nails, keep the bike vertical. Repeat the same measure, you'll see a bike settled even lower. This measure body height.
