Normally there is a suggested set up included in the kit or the manufacturers website.

This is normally a very good starting point, sometimes it is even the best!
Otherwise again try the manufactureres website for a rubber tamac/asphalt set up and try that.

Most people run 1 to 2 degrees camber both front & rear, 2 to 3 degrees rear toe in, 1 degree toe in or out at the front.

Slighter thicker oil at the fronr together with slighter stiffer springs on the front.

5mm ride height, slighter higher at the back will help with steering.


Hope that helps
