Hi all. i have an o4 xb9r that i purchased used. unfortunately, i don't have an owners manual for it. all 150 lbs of me thinks that the suspension could use some fine tuning. i have a lot of tuning experience, but am looking for a good base of info to start from. does the manual contain this, or where should i go for info?

This has been posted here. Shawn Higbee's tables and setting recommendations are pretty good for starting out. Better than the manual.

there is this, but depending on your riding style it may or may not be suitable.

or you can go to the buell web site, here is the link.

that's for an 06, but it should get you in the ballpark. This is not set in stone. These are just starting points.
