Explaining Bike Setup
Posted: Fri Feb 17, 2012 5:01 am
I was wondering what everything means in the advanced stability setup means? I cant use the 3.1 bike setup.
Leveling - How much the bike wants to roll towards vertical.
Roll Damping - How quickly the bike leans over.
Roll Limit Angle - The angle when extra roll damping kicks in.
Roll Limit Factor - How much extra roll damping you get past roll limit angle.
Steering Damping - How quickly the bars turn.
Steering Strength - The force used to turn the bars.
Max Steering Force - The maximum forced applied to the bars.
Direct Steering - At 0, the steering control sets the target lean angle. At 1, the steering directly applies force to the handlebars.
Slow Damping Speed - Speed in feet per second below which you get extra roll damping.
Slow Damping Factor - Amount of extra roll damping you get below slow damping speed.
The vertical settings are for up/down and the forward settings are for forward and back. Spring controls how much force is used to push the rider back to center. Damping controls how much the rider resists motion.
The mass distribution setting controls how much mass is in the top half of the rider.
