The S4 as standard is not a good handler ,, and its not the Sachs shock that is the main culprit its the front forks ,, they look fully adjustable ,, but its not ,, the preload and compression work but the rebound is not connected to the cartridge ,, even putting in decent springs and a shim upgrade wont make much difference ..
The standard front forks are very cheap showas ,, I spent a lot of time and money trying to improve them with hyperpro springs , different oil weights and adjustments but they were flwad design due to NO rebound circuit .
I fitted an Ohlins DU46 to rear with remote adjusters and it did help a bit but in the end I changed front forks to Superbike forks off a 996 with Kteck valves and shims mods installed and ohlins 8.5 springs ,, now its perfect also needed new yokes etc ..
