    Does anyone here have some recommended suspension settings for Oulton Park track.
    The main one for me is SAG if anyone can help?

    Thank you in advance.

    Best thing to do is get it setup on the day. It costs about £40 and they will work with you after every session.

    I will second that. Go and speak to James at Infront Motorcycles who does the tyres (has a yellow Pirelli truck). Well worth the £40.

    Infront motorcycles now employ Ian Mackman who races a Blade very succesfully and has done the TT many times, including 2012 for Norton, so he knows his stuff. They are top lads and will give you all the time and advice you need. Enjoy and have have fun!!!
