Hot damn is all I have to say. After 20k on my 08 12R, I finally set all of the settings to the factory recommended settings. The dealership had the preload spot on, but the damping left alot to be desired. They were 1.5+ turns softer than reccomended on the front C&R. Didn't count on the rear, but wow what a noticable difference in handling. I actually had to slow myself down, I was scaring myself not riding with all my gear on. Totally new bike to me now, I'm gonna have to relearn alot of my favorite roads, it seems way more settled in corners.

Way cool - another believer.

There are many who know that the path to enlightenment is a twisted one that needs not power but needs control.

(dang, that's as freaking close as I'll go to poetry without more beer)
