In this video Dave tunes a both a standard and S version of the sexy Streetfighter 848. Unlike most middle weight naked bikes, the Ducati comes with fully adjustable suspension front and rear.
Big fan from Vietnamese. I have learn alot from you and it help me to tune my bike and my customer bike.
Thanks for using the information!
excellent Dave, thank you for this! I can't wait to get some good weather here in New Zealand and try some suspension tweaks :)
You made this for me thank you 🙏🏼 can’t wait to get off work to follow this video
Let us know what you changed and how the changes worked for you!
I have yet to find my local suspension guru, great video as usual
Happy to help via my Remote Tuning service where you can work with me in your garage to get your bike perfect for you.
I really hope you can make it to the Portland, OR area soon. I have been wanting to do an in person setup for a while now
Brilliant you had some SF 848’s to set up Dave, much obliged for your message, I will be contacting you from Blighty.. my SF is like riding a railway line, just not enjoyable to ride at all ..it needs sorting.. will be in touch .. Cheers.. Glenn 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge
Thank you for watching.
Great video. Would you be visiting FL soon? Would love your help
Hope to set up a National Tour with Cycle Gear next year to travel the US. Fingers crossed. I can help you via email or video with your bike(s) as i offer a Remote Tuning service. If you are interested, please email dave@davemosstuning.com
Hey Dave, I've had a Hypermotard which i perfectly set up with the help of your videos! But it only had a adjustable shock...
My new to me bike is a Streetfighter 848 but I am having problems adjusting the fully adjustable suspension.. I started with the static settings front and back.
Front (1 turn preload): 142mm in the air, 115mm sag, 105 with rider
Back: 600mm in the air, 588mm sag, 568mm wirh rider
Are those measurements okay? I weigh 90kg, using the bike fast on the street, not track (yet) and not commuting
As a starting point, yes. Assess fork and shock travel used to see if they are visually similar. If not, drop the front end 5mm as a stand alone change and see if that "balances" the chassis and travel.
@@catalystreactionsbw Thank for your answer! Shock and fork travel seem to be very similar, will do further testing on that.
But even with the current settings: The bike feels so much better than stock! I don't know what the goal of the previous owners was, but the bike handles waaay better than before
Master class always
I ride sf848 too thanks for this video
Hi Dave ,just finished watching your trash or treasure Gsxr ,I have just picked up a Aprillia RSV mille 2001 been garaged 10 years without running only 18k km from new managed to get running, I take it it best to completely strip and rebuild all suspension and brakes before trying to ride it anything special to look out for?
Yes correct, as well as examine the steering head bearings, loosen and retorque the engine, then loosen and retorque the shock linkage and swing arm.
Hello, Dave! Please help me - how many turns in the front fork spring setting? Streetfighter848 2012
Your weight? How many wheelies? Hard braker or recreational rider? How old is the fork oil?
I appreciate the video but have one remark and one question in terms of the last bike in this video. Rear shock rebound does not click when adjusting it, it has about 2.25 turns to it. What was 6 clicks in?
The 2nd question would be, none of the three bikes needed preload added or taken away in the rear? Even the first guy who said the license plate and muffler got damaged?
Rear shock travel was 4mm from bottom out on the bumper. Compression was at effective minimum, so more compression to reset made sure that the shock would be at 6-8mm from bottom. I miss spoke on rebound being clicks. My error.
@@catalystreactionsbw Great stuff I appreciate the input.
One video idea for you, unless I missed it, would be to help educate us on what configuration of suspension settings can be dangerous or lead to things like the death wobble. How to identify the problems before they bite us in the ass. I think it would helps lots of folks.
Example: incorrect rear sag and fork compression damping set too soft
@@Ciubaka Great idea and thanks for the suggestion.
I couldn't get my SF848 to squeeze in the corner to literally save my life (crashed it) I put the stock settings according to manual and never really gone more then a few clicks here n there. 12k kilometers and I was 78 kilos. It's gone now 😭 almost cost me a leg
Totally agree.. god knows if it’s set up like this at the factory… it’s hasn’t been user friendly to ride at all ..
That is why we set sag and damping on day one to make sure the bike is set to us, the owner.
Where was this setup meeting at looks familiar?
Motor Cafe, Campbell California
It might be time to pick up an apprentice Dave . You look like you have enough business to support one .
They last less than a month. It is too hard a schedule to maintain.
Where is this location i need to see you sir
I am based in Northern California based around the San Francisco general region. I travel extensively, so you can see my events here: davemosstuning.com/calendar/
How much does a remote tuning session cost?
$40 for email and $80 for 30 minutes of video 1-1
Do you still offer this service?
Guys says it's too soft and you said it's too stiff?
Don't get it
How much travel is being used? Too little and almost all the travel used feels the same.
@@catalystreactionsbw no , but it doesn't matter, i still watch your videos.
Cheers from Sweden
