HI Guys, Does anyone have the info on the standard suspension settings for a SB6R. The guy that had the bike before me has "tweaked" it to the point that it needs a billiard table smooth surface to track a straight line through the bends.

cheers Kojay

Yep, I've got the factory settings.
Rear spring preload is 151mm
Rear shock reservoir knob is 12th click out from fully screwed in
Front fork adjustment
Adjusters on top of fork legs are 5th click out from fully screwed in (30 poss clicks)
Adjusters on bottom of fork legs are 5th click out from fully screwed in
Hope that helps

Hi all... I'm new to this forum.
Just found this thread very interesting... Now I wonder if anyone knows the standard settings for the SB6 (1994 model)... thanks in advance.

Being as the chassis and engine are pretty much the same, so are the forks and shock, I reckon that the SB6R settings would be a reasonable place to start from
