anyone used this for the street?

Not sure what they mean by the "Preload:10" for the rear? If it is clicks from hard, isn't that full soft as I thought there are only 10 clicks in total?

The factory rear pre-load is 4 (out of 12). Mine set at 8 and my suspension guy said he would not recommend going higher with that shock.

they tested it at the track with a 140-50 lb rider at those settings

alot of people have seen this, any users?

Try it and ride it... You are the only one who can make a determination if that works for you...

I did a while back, just trying to see what people thought about it

Set your sag and have someone who works on suspensions set it gor you. It's worth the 30-40$ to do it right the first time. Most people that answer these questions don't have a clue.. Most, not all just for the record :-)

The rear shocks are pretty stiff for me. For both the 08 cbr1 and 2012 cbr1 i have them at maximum soft preload. (~80kg rider with gear on)

quick question on the showa bpf, when adjusting preload on the front shock. how do i know i have reached max preload? i tried spinning it i heard the clicks but it doesnt have a physical stop as the comp and rebound do. how do i know when it is full stiff or full soft?
