Beta rider sag?

Postby LRM » Fri Dec 13, 2019 1:51 pm

I have a new 300 RR/RE. Does every one just set the static sag? I can't find any mention of rider sag like other bikes. :?:

From the 2019 RR manual the static SAG should be 35mm:

I measured my 2019 RR Racing and I got 39mm static and 113mm dynamic (standing) / 115mm (seated), I think it's a little high but should be good for slower and uneven terrains, right ?

Cheers !

Thanks for helping me out. I'll check mine and post what I come up with. I have my static right at 35mm.

You should try to get rider sag around 1/3 of the total travel. On my 2015 300RR I found it turns better with a slightly steeper rake on the front end. You can achieve this by setting rider sag to a slightly lower value, or slide the fork tubes up a few mm in the triple tree.
