Without the knowledge your baseline is significantly lower and only digresses with influences that subscribe to anything less than safe and respectful riding . Getting in front of relevant information both from in-class and riding Range work absolutely instills things and refreshes the old horses if they’re being honest. Getting the feel of slow speed balance on 2 wheels, turning using your head, eyes, utilization of correct gas, brake and clutch modulation takes practice executing within the spaces required for the course, while proving helpful in the real world.

Granted, on-road realities can’t really be experienced other than by doing it, but you can locate places to practice until you feel comfortable enough to hit the freeways. In terms of which bike is right for you, you’ll want to do numerous free demo-rides before buying. Jeeping it simple, just ride bikes you think you like. If you can demo the bike out on the road, you can ride it. Look up Ride Like A Pro and MC Rider here on KZread for some really good info on mind-set, safety and good practicable techniques. Bottomline is safety. Gear up properly or go home! Know the law and have a ton of fun if It’s awesome out here! We’re waiting for you brother! Again, life’s short, just buy the bike! Just my .2.

Exactly what I thought

Watched and learned a lot from Dave Moss over the last couple of years on KZread., he certainly knows his stuff. Must be great to have him drop by and fine tune the suspension for you. Really enjoy your vlogs.

Great video again guys. I followed one of Dave’s instructional videos YEARS ago on changing GSXR fork oil. He definitely knows his stuff. He was in another video about track days and was diagnosing suspension setups by the look of tyre wear... amazing 😆

Great informative video. Dave is a suspension guru. He was kind enough to respond to me, a novice nobody, on one of his SV 650 suspension videos and gave me great starting points in adjusting my upgraded front and rear suspension. Humble man for sure! Ride safe.

Long video however I’ve watched parts multiple times! Having owned a V4S Panigale for 2 years I’ve never really understood the electronic suspension, now I do. Made so much difference to an amazing bike now it’s personalised to my weight and riding ability on road and track. Thank you for a great tutorial video

Always great to watch a video with Dave Moss.

This was so unbelievably helpful. I'm more or less the same size as you and have 400 miles on my SF V4S odo. The only video I watched that I actually took notes on. Thanks!

Dave Moss Legend. Great video, I now have base settings for when/if my bike ever arrives, cheers.

Thanks so much for this video, absolutely transformed my 2018 V4s just from your knowledge ... I don't really do track riding but you have helped turn my bike from an unpredictable stock setup to something that I am confident to push on with, couple of little tweaks to do but from this video alone I now understand suspension more than I ever did and know exactly what I want to change hats off to you lads !!!

Huge fan of Dave’s channel!! So much knowledge. Wish he would make a tuning trip to South Florida. Awesome video!!

Awesome video, learned a lot. So many videos about squeezing more power, louder exhausts, carbon fiber etc, all for nothing if the bike not set up for your weight etc. In lockdown due to covid here in Melbourne, Australia. Loving your video series on the streefighter, keep them coming Mr Cali Moto!

Super interesting video, totally absorbed by it! Almost pleased that my bike has no riding modes and no front fork adjustment because you need to know what you are doing and I think it would blow my mind. Dave Moss wow!!

thank you, I wished I would have watched this before last Saturday!! The next round to try this!! another big THANK YOU!!

Very Informative video, gets me thinking about going with the electronic suspension.

Learned so much and points out how much more there is to understand. Getting this bike in the summer (when lockdown ends here in the UK) - so this vid will be one of my reference points. Thanks so much. Yours aye, Alan

Fascinating! Dave is amazing!

Great video.. watched the whole.. its like free education - visually learning alot about what to look for.. 👍🏻

Dave Mosss is a wizard when it comes to suspension tuning. He turned my R1 Yamaha years ago at Button Willow. My bike went from a scary handling bike to one that felt as though I was riding on a monorail. He was patient and through adjusting a little bit here try it and get input. He followed me on the track, I followed him. He is EXCEPTIONAL. Besides being a great guy. Thanks Dave for a much improved ride, better confidence. Not to mention much improved lap times.

New to your channel- my new street fighter brought me to you. Like what your doing . But you kept interrupting the master as he was trying to explain the intricate workings of your suspension to you . It would be like barbecuing with Aaron Franklin and keep stepping in to let him know fire is hot. Not trying to be a dick .

The only thing i don't get is why Ducati are sending out their bikes with no static sag if its considered dangerous. Love to know the answer. Keep the videos coming really enjoying them.

I truly appreciate this video. Please follow up with more. I’m curious to know how the adjustments worked for you and what you learned. I struggle to fully understand suspension, but I learned a lot from this video. Thanks, to you and Dave! Keep doing what you’re doing.

Dave is awesome!!!

I'm really glad that I found this video and within the first few minutes Dave made my local Ducati dealer's sales guy's statement false. When asked if they did sag adjustments he claimed that the forks didn't require it. The I politely pushed back, he said that the shock could be adjusted. 😡

Excellent Video ; 45 minutes on KZread & I didn't realise 👏👌👍

Brilliant video and lots of info! When you ride are you in fixed or dynamic, or is fixed a subset of settings inside the dynamic realm?

Dave seems such a cool guy and a well of knowledge. His style is very animated which makes it fun and interesting even if you ahven't got a clue what he's talking about :)

First video I have saw of yours, i read a couple of comments about u interrupting and talking too much b4 I watched, glad I never bailed, great stuff! Been really tempted to make the trade to the streetfighter from my tuono, this has tempts me more..argh

Dave is the best

Here in my garage getting some knowledge. Want to know how I got all these bikes. Knowledge from Dave Moss.

How good is that electronic control? Like you, I almost understand it, but when I had my s1000r set up at the track I had no clue what the guys were telling me (but I knew it was much improved).

I noticed you guys didn't adjust the front preload at all. Was it not needed or was it done off camera? Curious as I'm trying to work on my suspension as well lol.

Interesting video-What’s the spring rate front and back and did you need to change them?? You look a similar weight to me, do you know what weight ranges the stock springs support? Thanks!

Nice. So what rider weight is the bike stock suspension set up for?

Wow, how did you get Dave Moss to come to your house? Yeah, he is an amazing suspension tuner I know and has suspension tuned my bikes three times.

Did Panigale V4s was on your list to purchase? I will have to get the numbers set up from you if I get the SF.

Question, do you know if it’s possible to get the rear shock off without taking off the exhaust? Great video by the way.

Hello , Thank you for having Dave to explain the DES. I am new to the V4 world, I own 2018 V4S and I took it to the track at NJMP. It was a nightmare riding it. I am an intermediate rider and I usually run 1:5 or 1:6 on my zx10R but with the V4 whatever I tried I was at 2:00 and 1:58at best. How do you select the customer setting Dave made for you. When I changed all the settings it still say Dynamic instead of Custom. How do you set Custom as active setting. Thank you

Man that sure is a fancy dash menu !

@@CaliMotoTV I personally don't think I would have the patience to 'dial it in' LOL

Regarding the steering damper; isn't there additional resistance to steering input from the gyroscopic effect of the front spinning wheel ( depending on the speed of course )? Is that considered while adjusting the steering damper settings?

Are you posting a vid for Dave's set up on the s1000r? That would be very interesting to another s1000r owner...:-)

Great video guys :) You didnt have accelaration and mid corner in sport mode as you had in race mode ;)

Perfect!

In the dynamic modes... does yours pass the front fork bounce test? Also, there any front preload? I’m 5’10” 185 without gear and trying to set mine up here in SoCal

Does oil viscosity change as it heats up in the shock and forks? I.e. gets thinner as it gets hotter?

9:01 Completely understandable of what he’s trying to explain, and the static sack is important

Cali Moto - appreciate the video. I have an SFV4s as well, used this to set my baseline. (Love Dave Moss, and have had has paid app in years past). One question... I didn't see you guys set Front Sag... Did Dave play around with that at all, or leave it at Factory settings?

Cali Moto TV - he actually checks shock static sag, but doesn’t check riders Sag.... he also doesn’t do anything with the fork Sag at al.

@brandon1443

Did you cut off the shock sag and rider sad portion? Also how much do you weigh?

Did the adjustment have a dramatic effect on the handling. How is the ride quality now, is it plush and how does it feel through the corners? It would be great if you can just make one vid just about the SF4's hamdling in corners. Not seen any videos that have a great focus on how the SF4 rides thru' the corners. Reviews generally covers a broad set of issues.

Very good ! ;)
