Track Day
I have my first track day coming up next week, a short circuit, Mondello park in Eire. What adjustments could I make from standard suspension settings to make things work a little better?. This track is more flip/flop than flat out! Thanks!.

Just watch out for the on/off throttle response at higher rpm. BTW what tires are you going to use, hopefully not the stock 207ZR's. Also do not wind in too much "preload", many people do not realize that they are actually ride height adjusters so screwing them in simply raises the front end - you need as much weight over the front as you can get on the 12R.

Okay, here are the suspension settings for the 00 and 01 ZX12R courtesy Bertie Simmons, Assistant Editor of TWO magazine...
...in a conversation with him this August, he provided me with these settings, which were developed by Niall Mackenzie. I have personally used this setup on the racetrack, and also had it check by CircuitOne suspension...
Front:
Comp: 2 clicks back from max
Rebound: 4 clicks back from max
Preload: 2 rings showing
Static Sag: 20mm
Rear:
Comp: 7 clicks back from max
Rebound: 2 clicks back from max
Preload/ Static Sag: 5mm
