Hello,
I started riding Fazer 800 a few months back and within no time realized that I would need to do something about the suspension setup to push the bike better around a corner.
Mine is a 2010 model which has clocked only 16K(<9K when I got it in Sep 16)
I had set the rear suspension preload to max -1 and I felt better, but still no where how want it to be.
Front feels soft as well, especially the dive while braking.
I assume that putting thicker oil will improve the front, but what about the rear.
I am 80plus kg. Is FZ1 rear suspension a good option for me?
Or should I rather go for R1 suspension with an adapter?
Also is there a way I can get preload adjustment at front forks?
I am on a budget, so after markets are out of question
