This is interesting, although mines not an evo. After having my forks re sprung and reshimmed, with 5 weight oil at Maxton £500 I still wasn't 100% happy and I'm still not 100% but I found out there's an Ohins agent 10 miles away from me (Typical although on the surface it looks like they specialise in cars) There's a chap there called Daz who is the only person who's explained all of this in easy to digest chunks. He said they no longer bother with static sag! They only do 'Rider sag' Anyhow £40 and about 40 minutes later the bike is transformed yet again, now it's predictable and at speed feels more supple and safer. Wish I'd gone there first. Also, the standard rear Ohlins does not just have rebound adjustment, Daz says that the "rebound" adjuster is a proportional adjuster which also affects compression damping, they adjusted that as well. To, elucidate further about my previous post on my handling issues, I decided that I couldn't carry on throwing money at this and not getting anywhere, so I plumped for new tyres (Road 5's) When the old Pirelli was being removed the fitter at Bike tyres Leeds called me over and said he'd never seen this before! The carcass of the Pirelli had folded in on itself on the tyre machine. It would seem that the root of a lot of my trouble was the rear tyre.
