Default stock F4 fork height setting?

Can someone please give me the stock fork height on an F4. Specifically, I need the distance from the bottom of the neck (from the lower bearing spot) down to the center-line of the axle. I can not use actual "fork height" as it would relate to triples since I am using a 929 triple and GSXR forks.

Please remember to specify how much static sag you want programmed into our answers.

I'll try to get a measurement for you tonight or tomorrow, if others don't jump in here first.

ummmm. . . not sure..... I'm just trying to find a "stock" setting so I can have a place to start with. So whatever the bike would come with from the factory?

Chris,

From the underside of the lower triple (the flatest part), you're looking at 455 mm.

Can you tell me how thick the lower triple is? I don't have my F4 lower triple anymore so I have to calculate my setup from the frame itself.

The lower triple thickness is 22mm +/-. To where it meets the frame, 25mm +/-.

Hope this helps.

Yeah that helps a lot. So if I figure 480mm +/-, that should at least get me somewhere in the ballpark and able to go from there.

Thanks!
