Hay guys.... I'm wondering WHY you wanted to take the "Dive" out of the front forks when breaking because that brings the geometry into a better cornering angle if I understand it correctly and i found that really makes my little Ninja corner really good just by adding a little brake on the front wheel going into a corner..... if the dive is excessive I can understand wanting to calm that down
no one likes a bike that dives excessively when the front brake is applied but
if I apply just a tiny amount of front brake when entering the corner the bike does the rest all by itself i have also found that i don't even need to do the brake at all just lean a bit more forward and it does that ....
am I missing something somewhere ?
Bob......
