I'm one of those guys that's just been riding the crap out of the stock bits (though still not terrilby fast or anything. I'm about 4.5-5 secs off the REALLY Ninja 300 racers).

To be frank those 3 things you listed, the bike ticked all 3 boxes with stock front and rear. The only thing I don't like about stock suspension is now badly it nose dives under hard decel but even that doesn't bother me too much as I don't trail my braking very much.

If the track is reasonably smooth (not GP track smooth but certainly no pot holes!) should I be leaning towards Hard or Soft compression/rebound damping?
