now if your sag isn't set, do that but don't change the settings past that just to do it

now that's the kind of thing I think Darrell was looking for.

Darrell strikes again!!

Yeah, I've got the sag set, and the comp/rebound to where it feels good on the street with good feedback, as far as I'm concerned. I guess I'll just leave everything as is.

yeah your posts sounded like you had your suspension sorted out better than most street riders doing their first trackday so I'd leave it. Suspension is really more about being comfortable so even if its not perfect for the track, its not a safety issue, just a comfort and with such limited laps you probably won't be going for any lap records or anything.

Just have fun and get signed up for a full trackday sometime soon! lol

Yeah, thanks for your help. Like everyone said, probably won't be running really hard, but like to have the best setup possible. I'll be sure to post up pics afterwards.
I would love to do the school with oldfatguy, but I just can't afford to drop the money on it right now. I figured I'd see what it's all about and just pay $25 for a few lap runs.
