    I figured it had gsxr cartridges but still looks really low and sounds that way as well. TD tends to go with those numbers I raised my second gen up almost10mm and instantly liked it better. My 2017 sv will have the Kteck cartridges

    Set fork height..... to what? how do they know what is going to work? What's your shock length at?

    I highly doubt they have any testing time with the chassis.

    I'm not sure of exact shock length however it isn't the same as the 2nd gen I believe it is longer

    No, it's way shorter.

    Stock is ~319mm, 2g SV is 330mm, 1g SV is 337mm.

    The chassis is much different.

    Fork height was set by Traxxion. The only change I have made was give it two more clicks of compression dampening.

    I raced for the first time this past weekend at Homestead. So much fun, overcame most of my fear of being on the track with others much more experienced than me.
