Can someone with a stock setup give me a measurement of what's in the pic below, as accurate as possible in mm? This is with the bike on it's stand, and the suspension topped out/unloaded. Would appreciate knowing a baseline for the FZR...
Thanks

Need some measurements
Hey guys, recently I've been starting to realize that the rear of my bike may be set up a bit high, after the swinger swap... it has a head shake on decel at around 65km/h, and wants to fall into turns at lower speeds.
Can someone with a stock setup give me a measurement of what's in the pic below, as accurate as possible in mm? This is with the bike on it's stand, and the suspension topped out/unloaded. Would appreciate knowing a baseline for the FZR...

Re: Need some measurements
Thanks shred, maybe it's my nearly worn out front tire... I have a new one on the way, we'll see if that helps (I'm gonna do the tire and front wheel bearings at the same time)shredex wrote:iv got almost 22.5".

The headshake is pretty bad, only on decel and with no hands on the bars, between about 65km/h down to 55km/h and then it goes away. If I have my hands on the bars, then it doesn't shake. Weird

Re: Need some measurements
mine did the same when I had my fzr forks.
needed a new front tire bad though...did the fork swap so I dont know if new fron tire would have helped
but I can decell no handed from 160+km/h - 0km/h with no headshake.
The only time iv experienced headshake was while I was taking a fast curve during a bike run around 128km/h and hit a bump at the apex....scary shiz.

Re: Need some measurements
When I polished the lips of my rims the aircraft stripper ate the adhesive off my wheel weights and they fell off. I rode around without any weights on my front wheel for about a month and everytime I was coasting without my hands on the handlebars (under 25mph) it shook hella bad. Damn near got a tank slapper one time. Once my buddy static balanced my front wheel again NO PROBLEMS!
So, to make a long story short... CHECK YOUR FRONT WHEEL WEIGHTS
