mono suspension setup

[HABS 1]

hey, have a 06 gt with ohlins shock, waiting on a ecu i ordered to repair adj on fly and really want to set up properly, even when it was working it rode like a board, i am 230 lbs without gear and had the shock rebuilt and revalved at shocktec accordingly, also put pioneer big spring on, looking for adjustment specs, suspension sag when sitting on it or any tip or tricks to get it to ride the best it is capable of , thanks

Call Shocktec and see what they recommend for your weight and set up. Whatever they say ,adj and go out and ride it.

The shock has many adjustments. It may take some miles !

Set the spring for 40-45mm of sag. Turn the black rebound adjustment fully clockwise as viewed from rear of sled until gently bottoms. Now turn it 20 clicks counterclockwise which basically puts it in the center of adjustment range. Set compression on dash to 4 bars. Ride sled, make minor adjustment up or down in rebound to provide the ride you want.

Yip, my 06 Attak rides like a dream after a buddy & me re-valved the Monster shock to a triple stage stack. I put the rebound as stiff as she goes also

not sure if mine got triple valve stack? but it was revalved for me, not going to send shock out again right away thogh! ill try the adjustments as metioned, and next year or time it needs redone will inquire about triple stack, thanks for the help!!

The sag setting can be tricky. Sounds like too much pre-load (spring too tight).
