Ride height
If you set the front spring perch at 50 mm from bottom and the rear perch 90 mm from bottom, you should be near a 25 mm (or 1 inch) drop. All cars are different and also the drivers rear is usually a little lower, so it will take some fine tuning. A 25 mm drop is the recommended starting point. However, there is a lot of travel and we've run these lower with good results. A little bit of forward rake can also be helpful for some users.

Andrew, I didn't want to clutter up your Superstreet-1 thread so I thought I'd ask here: do you know why most Twins' LR corner sits lower than the RR? I've never corner balanced; I just measured the threads on the shock bodies and set them equal L to R.



I always thought it was because of my uneven garage floor, but then I noticed that the RR corner always looks a bit higher no matter the surface. I haven't gotten around to correcting it, but I've spent a bit of time looking at my top mounts to see if they were somehow different from side to side -- so I found it interesting that you've observed this rear height discrepancy in many Twins.
