  • Your motorcycle's level of comfort, control and traction can be improved by properly adjusting your suspension's rebound damping. Rebound damping is adjustable on all but the most basic suspension systems. In this MC Garage video, Sr. Road Test Editor Ari Henning explains what rebound damping is and how to check it in order to make the correct adjustment.

      Agree, I’ve been watching Dave Moss Tuning videos to learn how to set up my suspension. DMT is the suspension tuning wizard but his explanations make it hard to understand. This video was right to the point

    Finally, what an excellent video! You explained exactly what I wanted to know in 2 minutes, whereas other videos waste tons of time talking talking talking but not really revealing anything important. Seriously, thank you!
    I was trying to figure out how to adjust my rebound damping, that's all, all these other posts going into these ridiculously long videos and conversations and talking about all of these unnecessary details. Like please, just tell me how to fucking adjust my rebound damping to satisfactory results!
    Thanks again.

    Good video guys. Try and get a wider shot to show how the chassis of the bike responds overall. That gives most people a better perspective of how a bike should react to bumps or an undulation.

  • @ThatGuyFromNantucket06

    Ari, Which do you prefer? FZ-07 or FZ-09?

    I have a 2020 MT 09 (bought it brand new from a dealer), I have not touched the suspension, so it should be pretty soft, right? Im 190 Lbs, when I ridge on a rough surface, I feel like I'm riding a brick! I did the bounce test, and the front fork feels pretty soft. Any suggestions?

    And if you have an MT-09, no amount of dialling will cut it. Change the forks...

      +RoadBlazer At the very least, measure your sag, and get some new springs/oil installed.

  • @aaronbehindbars
    @aaronbehindbars Před 8 lety

    Wouldn't the rider's weight drastically change the adjustments you make? It seems like setting the rebound on an unladen bike might result in too much damping when laden. I am no physics whiz, so I might be completely off with this.

    • @TheNickypops
      @TheNickypops Před 8 lety

      +Aaron Fink its just a base setting for the bike. if you get a second hand bike etc with no manual you can set it like this and work from there

    • @d1sturb3d119
      @d1sturb3d119 Před 8 lety +2

      +Aaron Fink Negative. That is what your preload setting is for. Once preload is setup for rider weight, the dampening settings are adjusted using the bounce test and reading your tire wear. Different tracks demand different rebound settings. The bumpier it is the less rebound would be needed to keep the tire on the ground. Dave Moss is also a good resource on youtube to check out.

    • @Morannar
      @Morannar Před 8 lety

      +Aaron Fink that would be correct.
      Still, the logic is "if my rebound is out of tune even with no rider, it will be extremely out of tune with the rider" (no to mention the passenger, full load etc).
      Setting the damping from the free sag is a starting point. The finishing point is something no novice can achieve.

    • @d1sturb3d119
      @d1sturb3d119 Před 8 lety

      Nicola Furlani Where do you guys come up with that understanding from. That is exactly why preload is setup with the rider on it. Once sag is correctly adjusted dampening rates go with it accordingly.

    • @Morannar
      @Morannar Před 8 lety

      vidurc Your statement is correct but I can't get your point. Nobody said otherwise in this comment section. And why did this became a thing about preload?
