Suspension setup for stock 05gsxr600

[patrick #668]

Hey all im wondering if anyone has a set-up for a 05 gsxr600 for loudon,for my suspension.Its stock for now,all i can afford until next season.i wiegh 175to180lbs.Right now the suspension is a stock set-up.Thats was fun for my first race weekend,especially giong into three,and turn ten,or coming out of.So if anyone has any sugestions just to get through the rest of the season for a setup i would be very happy,thanx for your time.

go see pk and have him set the sag/comp/rebound. easiest way to get a baseline if you aren't too keen on screwing with it yourself.

Yea...not really much you can do with a stocker....just see Peter and have him do his thing and ride out the season and upgrade..

if you need help finding him I can show you his Garage and I pit right next to turn 3 bleachers Row A...im always there on race weekends

Yea...just either buzz me or stop by......978-944-5163 and I wonder if the 06 shock is a better shock than the 04-05 was......cause I have an 06 OEM u can have if so


and my pit bud has a vortex gas cap and a few other parts that you may want...

Thanx again Pigman thats awesome im not sure if its better,probably is Thanx for the offer im not sure what il do,but thats very generous,and if im in need il pay you for the shock if thats what i do that wouldnt be a prob.Thanx again.Patrick

dont use an 06 shock.

call me if u need a little guidance... at mid 20's, you can easily make something safe and comfortable for the remainder of the season.

Thanx Kit i usually look at the sport rider mag site they usually have something for the bikes they test.I used there setup for my TL1000r and its fine way better than stock and that suspension is junk.The set up they have for the gixxer doesnt seem right to me,but i might still try it if i cant figure it out.Thanx again for your time and i hope to meet you soon.Patrick

Hey Patrick, definitely go talk to either Peter Kates or Mike Martire up at the track... both of them I'm sure would be happy to work with you to get the most out of what you have.

If you want to take a more do it yourself route... check out this list of articles. You'll learn a bunch...
